WORK FOR SALE: STUDY FOR DOWN THE LADDER
2005 Oil on Canvas
12" x 24" Unframed

$6,000*

Steve Huston was born and raised in Alaska. He studied at Pasadena's Art Center College of Design, while working construction each summer to pay his tuition. Even before graduating with his BFA, Huston began illustrating for such clients as Caesar's Palace, MGM, Paramount Pictures and Universal Studio, among others.
After nearly a decade of doing commercial work, Huston decided a change was in order.He began teaching life drawing and painting, composition and anatomy; first at his alma mater, then at Disney, Warner Brothers, and Dreamworks Studios. This allowed him the privelege of passing on the knowledge he had been given, while further honing his craft and seeking out new influences for the career he now envisioned.
Such influences came to include Titian and Rembrandt, the early American Tonalists, the homespun character of the WPA art projects, and the heroic and graphic power of the American Comic Book form.
1995 began his career as a fine artist, winning top prizes at the California Art Club Gold Medal Show that year and the following. A string of gallery shows has followed, first in LA and then in NY and elsewhere. Huston continues exhibiting his work widely.

WORK FOR SALE: FOLSOM LAKE #3
Oil on Linen 7" x7", Framed

$75*

Fire extinguishers, a bag of potato chips lying on its side, marinas, reservoir ponds, and Twinkies, Craig Stephens is an oil painter from Auburn, California whose subjects are as broad as he is prolific. This high school art teacher starts and completes one painting each day. Stephens studied art at the University of California, Davis under the tutelage of Wayne Thiebaud, David Hollowell and Roy DeForest. On August 15, 2006, Stephens decided to start painting again and do a painting a day. Looking back on this process, Stephens says, The process of starting and finishing a painting every day has forced me to be constantly on the prowl for subject matter. I am far more particular than I would have thought. Looking back at the last five or six hundred paintings I have seen broad themes develop and play themselves out only to be revisited at a later time. I am interested in the continuing process of daily practice over time. I try to make the paintings as honestly as I can and I want them to stand alone but I am also intrigued by the narrative possibilities when they are viewed as a group or a very large work in progress.

Photographing people has been a passion of mine since picking up my first camera at the age of fifteen. Photographing another being, another soul is to have their complete and utter trust of me. This is a gift to be able to obtain this from somebody else, often time strangers in this day and age. Thus, leading to a stronger more defined sense of humanity within myself. I also love to mold my subjects into different characters to try and push their limits of their comfort zone to have them walk in somebody else shoes. I often do this to myself in my self-portraits. As we all were made to be different from one another, knowledge is power and with this power we can all bring peace amongst each other.
