Stell and William Shevis (Americans, 20th Century): White Gull. Serigraph on cold pressed paper, from an edition of 40, unframed.

Stell began painting when she was 10 years old and never stopped. She met her husband, William Shevis at the Massachusetts College of Art. They were married for almost 75 years and raised four children while making their living as artists on the coast of Maine. They produced woodcut and silkscreen prints for a variety of commercial purposes. When she retired from printmaking, Stell took up enameling. She made a significant contribution to the mid­-coast art scene. She was a founding member of Haystack Mountain School of Craft in Deer Isle and the Maine Coast Artists now the Center for Maine Contemporary Art.
