Steve's earliest influences and inspirations came from the Great Lakes region where he grew up. Throughout his lifetime he has been enamored of boats. Sailing vessels, lake freighters, military frigates; any type of boat has captured his imagination. Although Steve has resided in Colorado for many years, his paintings often reflect his love of the Great Lakes, fostered by frequent trips to his hometown near Detroit, Northern Michigan, and Wisconsin. In addition to boats, Steve also paints landscapes and cityscapes. Steve frequently displays and sells work in local, state, regional, and national exhibitions and galleries. He offers workshops and demonstrations as well as individual and small group painting lessons to help other artists understand and learn his unique style. Steve's students range from the very inexperienced artist to the professional painter. He currently has signature membership with Rocky Mountain National Watermedia and Colorado Watercolor Society.
