Areas I Teach
Stevie Woods, MFA Professor of Drawing and Painting | Gallery Coordinator, Cawein Gallery
Stevie Woods is a visual explorer whose work in oil and encaustic wax investigates the profound relationships between humanity and the environment. At Pacific University, she serves as the Professor of Drawing and Painting and the Gallery Coordinator for the Cawein Gallery. With 20+ years of experience—including projects featured at the White House—Stevie focuses on cultivating creative growth and fostering community restoration.
