My paintings reflect my life, which is a colorful, direct, playful narrative of ordinary daily moments, inspired by the fast paced suburban lifestyle.  In these vibrant expressionist oils, imaginary people, pets and things appear isolated, but interact within a bold composition.  Even the quiet figures vibrate with energy.  "I love doing my work - it makes me feel good to be alive."

Stacie Flint's paintings are collected in the United States and Europe.  The images have been used as magazine covers, for childrens book illustration, on an album cover, and a stage set.  Stacie Flint also paints portrait and public commissions. One of her portrait commissions is in the collection of film director Shawn Levy (Night In The Museum, Date Night), and in 2009 she completed five large canvases for Ulster County Area Transit in Kingston, NY, which features staff and passengers of the buses.  In 2010, she has been selected to create a painting for inclusion in the forthcoming book, "How To Paint a Donkey", from a poem of the same name by Arab/American poet Naomi Shihab Nye.  Scotswoman Louise Grieg is compiling it and has chosen the 52 artists from the US, Europe and the Middle East, requesting that they paint donkeys to serve as a metaphor for individuality and self-belief.  The book will be distributed throughout the UK and on Amazon.
