Our next exhibit will feature artworks of Steve Hanks – recognized as one of the best watercolor artists in history. The detail, color and realism of Steve Hanks’ paintings are unheard of in this difficult medium.

Hanks considered his style “emotional realism,” and created works that portrayed the smallest of details, such as the patterns on a skirt to the expressive faces of his subjects, whether they were infants, children or adults. He would also obscure the faces of his subjects, instead allowing their setting and body language to convey emotions.
