Biography
Raychael Stine was born and spent her early years in Chardon, Ohio. Her family moved briefly to New Jersey before settling in north Texas, where she attended Flower Mound High School. She received her BFA in painting at the University of Texas at Dallas. She received an MFA at the University of Illinois Chicago. She lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where she is Assistant Professor in Painting & Drawing at the University of New Mexico.

Subjects and Themes
Stine is known for her use of dogs as a primary subject of her paintings. About this practice she states, "It's sort of illegal subject matter in the serious contemporary art world because it's really sentimental and soft, and it's not thought of as intellectual or conceptual. But figuring out how to relate to something or understand it physically and visually is like the entire process of a painting."
