For over 30 years Stephen Blancett has worked in the advertising and publishing industries, as a creative/art director
for clients ranging from Citi Corp to Disney. “I love the business, but creativity is sometimes limited by a market,
product or theme. My fine art gives me the fuel and freedom to express myself, my feelings and my individuality.
It allows me to be me,” says Stephen.

He started painting and winning awards for his work at the young age of seven. His paintings are in the collection
of notable celebrities, and in corporate and private collections around the world. His work has been featured in
numerous publications and exhibited in galleries in the U.S. and internationally. 

He is also the of founder Project Coloring the World, which provides art and school supplies to teachers and
students worldwide. Blancett’s main studio is located in the small country town of Alva, Florida where he lives
with his husband, James and their two dogs and three parrots.

Blancett’s paintings have recently been exhibited in Miami/Art Basel; New York; London, England; Vienna, Austria and
