Have You Ever Experienced an Artist?
Stephen Fishwick, a San Diego County artist, is a high energy performer. When you watch him paint, you can feel his passion and excitement in the painting he is unveiling.
Stephen Fishwick has a studio and home with his wife, Jodi, and three children in San Diego County. His studio is filled with canvases of animals, caricatures and unforgettable celebrities. Stephen’s current For Life Collection is his idea of “Art With A Purpose,” whereby he donates proceeds to Wild Wonders, an organization dedicated to wildlife rescue, preservation and education.
Stephen’s dynamic live art performances have been seen at the San Diego Zoo’s Summer Nights for the last four years. Each painting is specifically choreographed to music and in less than 10 minutes he transforms a blank, life-sized canvas into a wild animal, with a splash. To keep his audience guessing, Stephen sometimes paints on a canvas that is upside down or sideways and then flips it, to the audience’s amazement. Best of all, these paintings can now be purchased in the zoo’s stores.
Stephen has traveled all over the world and has performed live for more than 14 years for professional clients including The National Football League, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Disney, San Diego Padres, Apple and National Geographic.
