Stevie Love is a Los Angelino from start to finish.  Her art work embraces the essence of the southern California landscape with its traditions of her family's Italian ancestry combined with the existing Mexican and Native American sensibilities.  The warm, sensuous hues soaked in Latin history, pass through the landscapes-their flora and fauna.  Love creates from her subconscious and brings it forth into non-traditional landscapes and quilts.  Love is a strong feminist growing up in the l960's when civil rights and women's rights were in the forefront.  Her work is influenced by women that came before her such as Eve Hesse's inclusion of viscosity and Miriam Schapiro's quilts and irregular formats.
