I am Lily Der Stepanian, artist and founder of ARTALOVELA, invite you to explore, connect and experience the world through my art.

I am an experienced college professor with a Master’s degree in Industrial and Graphic Design, freelance artist in various artistic painting techniques and styles: minimalism, realism, surrealism, abstract and fine arts. 

Participated international art galleries with over 25 years of dedicated work in higher education and the arts. As a practicing painter and passionate art lover, my career bridges the worlds of design, fine art, and academia.

My creative practice is rooted in both technical precision and expressive exploration, reflecting a deep understanding of visual language developed through years of study and hands-on experience. In the classroom, I bring this multifaceted background to inspire, challenge, and support students in discovering their own artistic voices, while promoting a strong foundation in both theory and practice.
