TIME\OUT is the nickname that has been chosen by the West American street art community for the French artist Stephane Cellier, after his multiple involvements in "Mural Marathon" and International Mural Festivals, during the 10 years he spent in USA.
TIME\OUT has always been attracted by arts and more particularly painting. Since his childhood, he showed particular aptitudes in this field.
Self-taught, but perfectionist, he then decided, alongside law studies, to follow evening classes and workshops directed by a former Director of the Ecole des Beaux Arts de Clermont-Ferrand (France), In order to discover the "little secrets" of the French great masters, and classical painting tecnics
Although practicing his art as a hobby for many years, he never really stopped painting, and even participated successfully in a few European Art competitions.
In 2010, after multiple professional activities, which, to his taste, kept him far too far from art, he decided to sell everything he owned to devote himself solely to his true passion, painting, and moved in USA.
He stayed there for 10 years; period in which his artistic career but also his vision of life will be completely transformed.
In USA he will made magical, astonishing and totally improbable encounters, which will lead him, not only to be adopted by the West American art community, but which will also make him a recognized artist, and several times awarded.
In 2015, he received the first prize, at the "Reno Visual Art Blast" festival, for his artwork titled "The Irishman", which is now part of the Permanent Art Collection of the City of Reno (Nevada).
Several cities in California (Live Oak, Tahoe City ...), and Nevada (Reno, Elko, Sparks), commissionned him for multiple monumental artworks.
He was even been entrusted with the realization of a 90 feet long mural representing the professional baseball and football teams of the city of Reno.
In 2017, he received a "Certificate of Commendation", from the Senator of Nevada, in recognition of his involvement and his artistic contribution in the state.
He was also part of the artistic TV show "ARTEFFECT", broadcasted by the public television channel KNPB .. (season 3 - episode 8)
