Fresh out of the Studio

In my mother’s garden

A series of floral paintings rooted in memory, longing, and the quiet beauty of connection across distance:

In My Mother's Garden, is a departure — quieter and more tender than my usual work. Twelve botanical watercolors inspired by photographs my mother sent me from her garden in Haiti. Available as a wall calendar, art prints, and greeting cards.

Hello!

I'm Stéphane — a mixed-media artist based in Silver Spring, MD, with roots in Haiti and France.

My work is about memory, identity, and what connects us across distance.

I work slowly, in layers, and I'm interested in the places where the personal becomes universal.
