About Stacy

Welcome. Since 1994 I have been enjoying creating works on paper including etchings, limited edition prints, monoprints, monotypes, drawings and paintings.
You will see that nature inspires my work - this is a result of my training as a scientific illustrator and the landscape in which I am lucky enough to live. Are you interested in taking a printmaking workshop? I am offering private sessions for groups of up to four in my home studio. Subscribe to my mailing list to learn about time slots for classes. You will also receive updates about new projects and events. Arranging a studio visit to browse my collection of artwork starts with a text or call to (415) 497-2203 or an email to info@stacyfrank.com
MORE ABOUT ME
The date for this workshop has changed from Saturday to Sunday. I've been made aware that Saturday the 5th of April will be a nationwide day of protest against the current administration. To allow those of us who wish to participate in this Saturday mobilization yet still want to join the class I'm shifting it to Sunday morning the 6th from 9:00am to noon.

Collage Workshop Sunday April 6th from 9:00 am to noon

Are you ready to make some art? On the first Sunday of April I will be leading a fun three hour workshop in my studio on the Westside of Santa Cruz. No art experience necessary. We will be exploring collage using a variety of paper ephemera including dress patterns, painted dictionary pages, vintage player piano rolls and more. Using 8" x 5.5" blank journals as our support for your collage means you will take home a number of unique and useful pieces of art at the end of this creative session! All materials are included. If you wish to bring our own ephemera to use please do. The class will be a minimum of four artists up to a maximum of ten. This is a fun class to take with a friend. Save your spot by purchasing the $60 class fee here.
A friend just sent me this photo while at Kaiser in Santa Clara. Great to see my original monoprints out in the wild! Verdure 23 and Verdure 27 framed in shadow boxes - an attractive way to hang pieces that have a deckled edge which is a product of the hand-made nature of this paper.ption
The 2024 Santa Cruz County Open Studios was a big success! Check out my visitors reacting to the 'big reveal' during my printmaking demonstration.
The Filoli Gardens' Art Walk which showcases forty hand-picked local artists was a grand success on the weekend of July 27th and 28th.
Studio full of sunlight and dominated by my Griffin IV etching press with plenty of work surfaces...
I've been working on a new series of mixed media and collage pieces. My goal for this grouping called Arches is to create 100 by the end of January 2025. Click on the image to see a gallery of some completed pieces.
I am pleased to be the featured artist on Grand Image's site for August 2024. They sell reproductions of some of my monoprints to the hospitality and design industry. You can read the blog post here.
