A creative life, in the making

STEPH WELCH

About

I'm Steph — a creative based in Sussex, UK, working towards becoming an artist. I paint colourful abstract pieces and make designed objects, and I'm slowly building a body of work I'm proud to call my own.

This space is where I'm documenting that process — the practice, the progress, the pieces that work and the ones that don't. Alongside the art, I share the everyday moments that keep me inspired: quiet countryside walks, colour, and the beauty in ordinary days.

A box full of key rings engraved for a local business and potentially a market stall in the not too distant future. I’ve had some fun afternoons experimenting with my xtool laser to see what’s possible ☺️👌🏻
Two new colourful acrylic canvases to add to the collection of experiments I’m not sure what to do with 😬😂
In March I also finally used my laser properly for the first time to create wedding place name pieces for a friend.
I got my paints and a big canvas out in March and created this. I love this piece and it was such a lovely day spent painting it in the sun ☀️
In February this year I took part in a 5 week ceramics class. Having 5 Wednesdays off work to spend trying something new and creative was amazing. I fully switched off from the outside world and loved working with my hard. This was a hand building co
In November I got my sketchbook. I’m still experimenting with different creative hobbies and art styles to find the thing that sticks. We’re not quite there yet.
In October I experimented with layering geometric paper shapes and continued playing with painting abstract art trying to leave negative space.
