Shane Martin Stover is a multi-talented visual artist. His artwork includes painting, illustration, concept art and 3D modeling. He has been recognized for his ability to capture the true likeness as well as the energy of his subject. Stover said, “I paint people primarily because people are alive and have emotions. I try to capture these emotions: excitement, wonder, happiness, or sadness, and amplify them through the way the subject is presented. Hopefully the viewer can relate to these things.”
