A little about the artist.

Stacie L. Hillyer was originally born in Denver Colorado and currently resides in Minneapolis Minnesota and currently works in construction and still creates work any chance given. She has obtained her Associates of Fine Arts from Anoka-Ramsey Community College.

-Art is one of the only things I’ve ever flourished in and it’s where I feel most comfortable. While I am producing art work, I am able to just disconnect from the world, to really put everything back into my own perspective and it makes me feel better as a human. The deceptive nature that can be generated in two dimensions intrigues me, along  with the freedom of possibilities that different media provides. Work in three dimensions provides much more of a physically daunting challenge and I feel a strong sense of pride when the piece is done. There is a sense of unspoken beauty in being able to wield a paintbrush and to mold raw unforgiving materials into new creations. I adore the fact that there is always something new to learn - a new medium or just a new technique - the possibilities are endless. Art acts as a filter which enables me to understand the world and myself. Within art I have the ability to connect and relate with others silently.
