A California Artist by Stephen Del Rose

Hello there, I'm Stephen Del Rose, a California artist, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to the Listen California Newsletter. Here, I'll be sharing my creative artwork and the stories that inspired them. You'll find a mix of fiction and non-fiction stories, as well as digital artwork, either in the same post or a bit later on. Let me take you back to my early days as an artist. Imagine a young man with two scuffed up sketchbooks, drawing to capture a unique view of the world. These sketchbooks were memories, ideas, and a means of translating imagination into reality. Sure, I lost a few along the way, but I like to think they found new homes and maybe even inspired someone else. Over time, I learned to use digital tools. Lately, I've been having fun giving my artwork a digital twist! I scan my pieces and use vector programs to refine them. You can check out my creations on clothing, as digital images, or even as canvas prints. What a fantastic adventure it's been, full of memories that have truly ignited my creativity! I'm thrilled to bring these stories to you through this podcast. Stay tuned for more tales and the artwork that captures the stories that inspired them!
