An essential style in Stephen's painting is abstract art.
Abstract art is an experiment with color, texture and design, and color and texture have always been a priority in Stephen's art. The way that one color plays upon another and evokes an emotion is the challenge in abstract painting, and texture is an essential part of the experience.
Stephen's abstracts are always planned and executed with a sense of drama, whether illustrated in thick and heavy oil paint on a large canvas or digitally produced in Photoshop. He appreciates abstract art as much as any other style of painting and really enjoys the process and the natural empowering freedom of expression.
