‘Upon a time I was really ill, and now I paint at my little desk, steaming mug of coffee at hand in the shadow of my pepper plant. As I step outside into the good of life I drag with me tales of horror, hope, witches and pills.’

I asked Steve about the excellent titles he gives his pieces, his response was:

“Each painting is a little story. As they take shape I try to encapsulate the tale, and the title has became an integral part of the process. Once it has a name it becomes tangible and present and I can start bringing it all together. Sometimes I have the title before I begin, but mostly it emerges as the lines become clear.”
