Estefania Flores was born in Houston Tx, and raised in Tyler, Tx. She is currently a student at the University of Texas at Tyler Tx working on getting a B.F.A with a Spanish minor and graduating Fall 2025. She has been accepted into the Juried Student Exhibition at the University of Texas and Fall Juried Exhibition both in Tyler Tx. Also, in the New Texas Talent- 32 Exhibition in Dallas Tx. Ever since a child, she has traveled to Mexico for many years to visit family where she was exposed to her Hispanic culture and heritage. Made a major impact on her art influence and ideas for her ceramic sculpting and oil paintings. Was able to learn how to translate all the color and designs into her work.
Another interest of Estefania is going for runs and walks to enjoy scenery. Spend time with family and thrift shopping. Her plans after graduation is to go to graduate school to earn her M.F.A degree.
