Artist Steve Seaborne

I am entirely self-taught as an artist. I began as an enthusiastic amateur about four years ago. After thinking about taking up the hobby for a while, family and friends decided to give me the kick start one Christmas with a range of art inspired gifts My initial forays were into watercolour painting: landscapes, portraits and the odd still life. Pencil work followed, and then I discovered gouache paints, which gave me the flexibility of allowing the subtle effects of watercolour with an additional capacity for vivid and bold colour when needed. Recently I have started to be inspired by the work of artists like Roy Lichtenstein and have added pen and ink to the range of media I use. In my work I try to portray my subject as simple shapes, looking at the play of light and shade upon them. A succesful piece for me will represent both an aesthetically peasing image plus invoke in the viewer a desire to see deeper into the personality of the subject, helping one to see beyond the first visual impression we make on each other.
