Bio

Stephen Paré was born in Ithaca, New York and has lived in many places, some cooler and some warmer.

He has tried a lot of things and done a lot of jobs and read a lot of books and seen a lot of movies.

He has played and sung and composed music professionally, acted professionally, and sold artworks.

His home is now in one of the warmer places: Houston, Texas; but it could be anywhere, really.

He makes his artworks in computers and mobile devices; but his artistic models are mostly 19th- and 20th-century painters, and his literary models are 19th- and 20th-century writers.

In 2022 and 2023 his connections in Italy led to numerous exhibitions in Rome, Milan, Venice, Madrid, and other cities. He is currently represented by Simona Biglino in Rome.

He posts new work on his Instagram account, username Verbonnet.

He enjoys the company of almost everyone.
