OBX Marathon Art
The Outer Banks Marathon is about a week away and we are pleased to note that Stephanie Kiker won the art competition for this years race. Stephanie also designed our Outer Banks Stand Up Paddle logo found on our website, T-shirts and hoodies. We will be running the 1/2 marathon to help stay in shape for the upcoming holiday season and winter stand up paddling.
2009 Adult Art Competion
Local Outer Banks artist, Stephanie Kiker, a Hatteras Island native and graphic designer, created the winning piece of artwork for the 2009 Outer Banks Marathon Adult Art Competition. Stephanie, a Hatteras Island native, has used the natural beauty and abundant wildlife on the islands as inspiration for her expressions since first moving to the area in 1985. She graduated from the School of Design at North Carolina State University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Graphic Design and has since pursued her career as a working artist, working in a number of mediums, including pen and ink, colored pencil, soft pastel and block prints. Stephanie's interpretations of her subject matter are original and her style is unmistakable. Her work moves from realism to the bold graphic shapes, patterns and colors of her well-known and unique aboriginal style. Along with prints of her art, Stephanie offers pillows, ceramic tiles, cutting boards and even a coloring book with her artwork. As a graphic designer, Stephanie publishes several Art and Craft Gallery Guides. Her artwork will be displayed on marathon apparel and as our 2009 race poster, available for purchase at the Race EXPO. It can also be found on the cover of the 2009 BeachBook, the official phone directory of the Outer Banks.
