Unique artwork covers walls at entrance to Ponte Vedra library

Posted

Visitors to the Ponte Vedra Public Library will be treated to a collection of art by recent Jacksonville transplant Stephanie Pyren.

Pyren’s artwork is on display at the entrance into the library and features a variety of styles and mediums.

Pyren’s art is a mixture encompassing the energetic essence of modern and the live sensibility of the old masters. She works in all medias, oils, watercolors, pastels and graphics and has exhibited in one-man shows and groups nationally and internationally, including France, Bangkok, Holland and throughout the United States.

Pyren has also illustrated four children’s books and has worked in all the major animation studios in Los Angeles as a character designer and background painter. She has also taught life drawing and fashion illustrating and window display at the Columbia College in Columbia, South Carolina.

Her and her husband have recently relocated to Jacksonville, where she has been getting involved with the local art scene. She is a current member of Jacksonville Artist Guild and has joined the Jacksonville Branch of the National League of American Pen Women.
