BELLA VISTA – The Bella Vista Arts Council is re-launching the Artist of the Month recognition program by honoring Stevie Stevens as the Featured Artist of July 2021.

Stevens will be honored at a public reception from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on July 29 in the Club Room at the Bella Vista Country Club, 98 Clubhouse Drive.

Stevens creates a mixed art with glass, porcelain, stone, mirrors and unusual finds. She uses traditional mosaic methods known for thousands of years, but also breaks the rules to create modern and abstract patterns. His creations are both functional and artistic. She creates with her heart, starting with a free sketch concept and intuitively develops the project until completion. Her designs are often graceful, fluid, meditative, and inspired by spiritual concepts. Transformation is a recurring theme.

Stevens also works with clients to create installations that include backsplashes or kitchen and bathroom accents, wall art, sculptures, and murals.

The Bella Vista Arts Council, an advisory board to city council, was established by city council in February 2016 to help promote the arts in Bella Vista. The Board of Directors has established an Artist of the Month program, in which selected artists and their work will be showcased and recognized for their achievements.

A committee will choose qualified artists each month, who must be residents of Bella Vista. The events will take place in a location around the city. Submit applications by email to [email protected]
