About Our Cover Artist: Stephen O’Connor & Blue Current Designs

Stephen O’Connor; owner of Blue Current Designs was born in St. Petersburg, Florida.  Growing up on the west coast, Stephen developed a quick appreciation of the ocean and all of the creatures that relied on it.  Stephen began drawing as a young boy, so it was only natural for him to sketch his experiences of the water which included fish, birds and the natural beauty of the Florida landscape.

Later in life, Stephen’s love of art led him to Europe where he attended the Professionale Per Scalpellini School in Lasa, Italy where he became an EU Marble Sculptor. Despite his love of all art forms his main passion has always been painting marine life and he continues to develop his skills by reflecting the ocean through painting and drawing. 

His Marine Art took a new platform recently with the launch of Blue Current Design’s fishing apparel line in 2013. The men’s and women’s clothing line features some of his original drawings that display his love of Marine life.
