Original Acrylic Mixed Media Painting on Canvas. This series rooted in the Pacific Northwest, reflects the region’s colors, climate, and contradictions—ferries and forests, dance steps in downpours, and plenty of Payne’s Gray skies. But more than the weather, many of these pieces are about weathering.

Stacy is a mixed media artist who uses various combinations of acrylic, charcoal, pencil, collage and oil—often sanding back through layers to let older marks re-emerge. The smudges, foggy transitions, and flashes of color reflect a process that’s both intentional and improvised.
