Vivienne Strauss and Matte Stephens are an artist duo who live and work in Bowling Green, KY with their three cats and three dogs. She has been a full-time artist since 2008. While not formally trained, she has a background in philosophy, is an avid reader, cinephile, and nature lover. Unable to confine her expressions to a single medium, Strauss works in oils, watercolors, paper and glue, needle and thread, digital photography, and the typed word.
She sells worldwide, and has shown in Seattle, WA, Portland, OR, Los Angeles, CA, Tokyo, Japan, Manchester, UK, Portsmouth, NH, Peterborough, NH, Groton, MA, New York, NY, and Nashville, TN. Her work has been featured in/on: The Observer/Guardian, Spirituality & Health Magazine, Home & Garden, House Beautiful/Turkey, Uppercase Magazine, NightBlock Magazine, The Jealous Curator, Brainpickings, Northern Woods Magazine, Collage Memory Game (produced in Germany for museum gift shops), Indie Craft by Jo Waterhouse, Edgy Cute by Harry Sailor, Design Sponge, SF Girl by Bay, Craft Magazine, Martha Stewart, The Weight of Love by Rusudan Rukhadze, Croque Monsieur by Ray Parnac, Femmes Contre Nature by Lea Godard, Kronkel’s by Simon Carmiggelt, The Great Escape-Andy Bilinski (musician), and Little Birds, big adventures. Some of her notable patrons include: the International Center of Photography, Vogue Photography Tim Walker, Director/Producer/Comedian/Writer Judd Apatow, Actress Lesley Mann, Actress Toni Collette,
and the Mindy Project.
When Matte is not painting, he enjoys playing Ping-pong, watching a good film, and hiking in the lovely Kentucky woods. Matte has been a painter of pictures his entire adult life and has never had a job that he has left his house for. He was worked with galleries and companies all over the world, including Tiffany and CO, American Express, Herman Miller, Kids Can Press, Uppercase Magazine, Jonathan Adler, Oxford University Press, ABC, IBM, The Oxford American, Sunset Magazine, The Boston Globe, Die Weltwoche, NPR, Chronicle Books, Disney, Editions Alto, Velocity Art and Design, Woodmanstern, Modern Twist, The Andez Hotel, Ipop, Marian Health, Hambly & Wolley, Tony Chi, Grand Hyatt, Penguin Random House, Penelope Francis, Go Coffee Go, Gibbs Smith, Urban Outfitters, Spirituality and Health, and Scholastic, just to name a few!
