The painting is signed on front, countersigned on back along with more details and the signed Letter of Authenticity accompanies artwork. Fully catalogued with its own verification number. 

In the green hills of Connecticut...

  He has always maintained the highest standard in originality creating everything by hand...over 25,000 individuals items that include signs, logos, renderings, movie posters, show bills, wooden crafts and acrylic paintings - the latter of which he concentrates on to this day.
He studied Architectural Design & History at the New York Institute of Technology and Design Drafting with LaSalle out of Chicago.  His 2005 mural entitled "OZ" was a front page story.  He started the 'Colorful Thoroughbreds' horse series. 

Each new painting is... 

a fresh addition to Steve's growing catalogue of work. "I like to challenge myself to explore new things every time I stand in front of a blank canvas" says the Southington Artist. Having spent many a Summer day in the Adirondack Mountains, he devotes a lot of time to creating colorful expressive landscapes. He also enjoys featuring figurative elements like horses, cats, birds and swans in some of his pieces.  He can shift gears to produce abstract images and will even cross the spectrum to the surreal. He works in all sizes using brushes, palette knives, fingertips and other tools to achieve results.
