Bio

Steph Blondet is a Puerto Rican visual artist based in Tampa Bay, FL, whose work explores the human experience through organic sculptural line paintings and wall-based sculptures. Known for her tactile surfaces, dimensional forms, and intuitive use of color, her work reflects movement, connection, and emotional rhythm. Drawing from both playful and contemplative influences, Blondet creates pieces that invite viewers to slow down, reflect, and emotionally engage with the work within their own lived experience.

Blondet began her artistic journey after a health scare in 2021, turning to art as a form of healing, grounding, and self-expression. Following the loss of her soul dog two years later, she fully committed to her professional art practice, allowing personal transformation to guide her creative direction. Her work has since evolved into a deeply intuitive process that balances structure and flow, repetition and variation, mirroring the complexities of growth, resilience, and human connection.

She grew up taking private art classes and obtained her Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Puerto Rico, her Associate of Arts from EDP College, and her Master of Science in Digital Marketing from Full Sail University. Upon graduating, she moved to Washington, DC, in 2013 to pursue a career in web development and design. During this time, she sold to private collectors in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. In 2019, she relocated to the Tampa Bay area to be closer to family and enjoy the warm weather.

Artist Statement

My work explores the human experience through organic sculptural line paintings and wall-based forms. Using dimensional surfaces, layered textures, and intuitive movement, I create pieces that reflect emotional rhythm, connection, and inner landscapes. The lines I build are not rigid or controlled; they bend, overlap, and flow, mirroring the complexity, tension, and harmony found in lived experience.

Each piece is guided by intuition and repetition, allowing structure and freedom to coexist. I work slowly and deliberately, responding to the material as it evolves. The tactile quality of the surfaces invites close viewing, while the movement within each composition encourages reflection and emotional resonance. My process embraces variation, imperfections, and subtle shifts, echoing how we grow, adapt, and navigate change.

Though rooted in personal experience, my work speaks to something universal. It reflects moments of pause, resilience, vulnerability, and connection. Through these sculptural lines, I aim to create work that feels both grounding and expressive, offering viewers space to reflect on their own experiences and emotional rhythms.
