I was honored to win "Best Depiction of the Tioga Wilds" in the pro category of the inaugural Wellsboro Wilds Plein Air Festival. I painted a local farm market surrounded by sunflower fields near the north end of the Pine Creek Rail Trail. My mother and daughter also took part in the competition and made some beautiful work!

Shown: "PagOmar Sunflowers", oil on wood, 12 x 12 inches. Winner of "Best Professional Depiction of the Tioga Wilds" in Wellsboro Wilds Plein Air Festival, Sept. 2024.

I completed my second residency at the Gmeiner Art and Cultural Center. As a rostered teaching artist with the Northern Tier Partners for the Arts in Education (NTPAIE), I enjoyed teaching drawing basics to a group of adults using a still life set up in the beautiful Gmeiner Art and Cultural Center in Wellsboro, PA. If your organization is interested in hosting one of my art classes, but need more information, please email me at stacyk.fineart@gmail.com or contact  the NTPAIE Program Director for more information at 570-268-2787.
