Being in the process...
Rather than being focused on the results, is very freeing.
It's really a gift to be given permission to feel your way through the painting process and not be attached to outcomes… and that’s how Stephanie teaches. Her lessons are so clear and step-by-step, which makes learning with her a calming experience. It is creativity from a self-care perspective, which is a very different approach. Stephanie’s course gave me the confidence to allow the water and pigment to do what it does naturally and to not have to work my will. It was freeing! And as a result, I found that doing the lessons felt like I was experiencing mindfulness in a different and fulfilling way. I experienced joy and found myself grateful for paper, pigment, soft brushes, and water - such a gift. Stephanie’s teaching manner and peaceful approach invited me to be present with myself. I felt complete acceptance for whatever was happening on the paper. All of it was okay.

hi, sweet one.
I'm Stephanie Ryan
WATERCOLOR ARTIST
I create washy and ethereal watercolor art that touches the heart and inspires the creative spirit. My soothing, soulful, intuitive paintings are inspired by nature and the feelings that bind me to it, creating an introspective mood that connects the viewer with my art. I see my work as visual poetry—beautiful colors with touches of light and inspired thoughts.
Let me be your guide...
I have been creating art for as long as I can remember and even started writing during a particularly challenging time in my life. Through that experience, I was able to find a new appreciation for life and a profound calling to create art and words that inspire, encourage, and comfort others. I have honed my ability to translate beautiful imagery and words into appealing consumer products that can be found at leading retailers and gift stores around the world.
And now I want to guide you to find your own watery, intuitive flow as you create your own unique art that inspires...

Stephanie's calming voice and sacred practices gently guided me to my own core.
All my intentions were met with Stephanie’s lessons and more. They helped me remember the delight of creating a sacred space, and encouraged me to rejuvenate these practices and integrate them into my art practice to create a more mindful session and art. Stephanie’s teachings supported me in trusting the process of letting go and embracing what is. Her lessons are surprisingly delightful and helped me learn in a playful way, while leading me to find calmness through a mindful way of painting with watercolor and creating loose florals. With her guidance, I was able to let go of making a plan, release my perfectionism and trust the flow of painting loosely.
–ELAINE K.
This is where the flow of your intuitive painting meets a deep trust in your skills.
Together, we will walk through my complete creative process. Deepening your painting skills, in my philosophy, encompasses more than technical knowledge. It’s a practice of quieting the mind and feeling your way through the painting. As you let the materials do the work, you'll gradually release the desire to control the end result. Instead, you'll surrender to the creative process, enabling your soul to tell its unique story.

After learning with Stephanie, things seemed to flow better.
I was inspired by the presence of the spiritual tools she recommended and was surprised by my ability to let go and enjoy the process. Stephanie's steady and nurturing guidance allowed me to find a way to enjoy the practice of art and discovery on a whole new level! Her intentional and quiet presence created the space to just be and create. Because of this, I am more likely to set out into an art session with watercolors without as many critics in my head.

I have stopped judging my skills and have discovered a whole new way to paint.
Stephanie's teachings changed the emotions that I paint with now. While I absolutely fell in love with the softness of her painting style, the added bonus was the meditative nature of it. Painting became so much more pleasurable. Her practices are free, vibrant, yet soft and meditative.... I am now able to offer myself constant reassurance that there are no rules.
