Stephanie Noce is an artist, writer, and mother whose work explores survival, feminism, faith, recovery, and motherhood through visual storytelling. She is a New Jersey native now living in Northeast Pennsylvania. For more than two decades, Stephanie has used art journals, painting, poetry, and mixed media to witness her life and make meaning from hardships. Her work draws from a deeply personal archive of journals, photographs, and artwork created across many seasons, from a messy childhood and early adulthood through sobriety, spiritual awakening, and raising two sons. Brush Strokes is her first published book. It is a visual art memoir that gathers these fragments of art, poetry, and memory into a living record of becoming. She shares her ongoing work and reflections on Substack and Instagram.
