Nesia Stenzel

Hi, my friends call me Nessi, I'm 10 1/2 years old. I have been making art since I was 4 years old. I had my first art exhibit (with grown up artist) when I was 4 1//2 years old in Bishop, California. My artwork has been featured twice in our cultural paper the "Sheet" (Mammoth Lakes). I make art when every I can but preferable in my dad's studio in Bishop because that's where all of our materials, mediums, tools and brushes are. I like to find odd random things and glue them on my canvas and then paint over it. But there is a lot of things that I do to make my collages look beautiful. I really don't know how it all happens. My hands move very quick and I just grab things that are on my art table und put them on the canvas. Move them around stick something else to it and then all of a sudden it's done.(It feels like God is telling me what to do. I did one of my paintings even with my eyes closed!) I make most of my paintings within one or two sessions working up to two hours at a time. I like to take short breaks and swing on my rope in my studio up side down. Here are some of my favorite paintings. I hope you enjoy them and please leave comments and tell me what you like about them (or don't like). I'm still learning! Thank you...

Self-taught with the guidance of my dad who is also an artist.
