Motorcycle artists are few and far between–and even fewer are women. But Missouri-based painter Stefanie Aziere-Sattler, 41, has carved out a growing reputation for her distinctive, colorful, Impressionistic oil paintings depicting anything with wheels and a motor.
“I’ve always had a need for speed,” Stefanie declares. “I used to barrel-race horses and drag-race a ‘72 Oldsmobile Cutlass.”
After a serious accident on a horse, however, she turned her focus to painting, beginning with portraits of custom cars. It wasn’t until 2006 that she produced her first motorcycle painting, depicting her husband Donnie’s bright-red Harley-Davidson Firefighters’ Special Edition.
