Each of Lande's paintings inherently contains an urgent energy, a result of her exclusive use of the vertical shaped wood panel to paint on. Painted in an almost Expressionist style with soft-edge brush work, every painting stares directly out into the eyes of the observer.

"Each of Stacy's paintings inherently contains an urgent energy, a result of her exclusive use of the vertical shaped wood panel to paint on. Painted in an almost Expressionist style with soft-edge brush work, every painting stares directly out into the eyes of the observer, and with a free use of hot reds, oranges, and blues, Stacy injects a melodramatic underlighting to give the impression that her subjects are reputed demi-gods on a metaphorical stage. For alternative art gallery-goers, there is no question about it, Stacy Lande is a significant chronicler of our impetuous times. With this said, let me offer you the enjoyment this book will bring you."--Robert Williams, from the Introduction
