STEPHANIE BORG is a self-taught artist and surface pattern designer from Malta. Her professional practice as a graphic designer for about 20 years, both in her native Malta and overseas, has enabled her natural sensitivity to and professional handling of colour and line to mature artistically.

 

Stephanie describes her work as a vibrant exploration of colour combined with attention to minute detail. Her technique is very laborious and meticulous, as she applies layer upon layer of ink until the desired effect and density is achieved.

 

The artist’s living experience in Oman for about 6 years has directly influenced her work and has enriched her love for colour, pattern and texture. She created a series of ink drawings depicting the Omani people in their traditional attire. Stephanie produced a range of greeting cards, wrapping paper and calendars as well as limited edition prints, always printed to high standards, featuring her Omani subjects. Her work can be found in private collections throughout the Middle East and in countries worldwide.
