At this point I am focusing primarily on Fantasy Tropical images that would evoke a sense of pristine solitude, a safe place, a peaceful “garden of Eden” mood”. A place that we would all like to go to relax and unwind. But at the same time I want to portray the awesome power of nature that I encounter while traveling and exploring the oceans of the world.
The Environment
Because of a lifetime spent in and around the ocean and nature, Steven is acutely aware of our responsibility to be dedicated to preserving a clean environment in a fair and responsible way. Steven is optimistic concerning the environment and not inclined to see mankind as the enemy of the planet. Steven is an advocate of an emerging new school of “Smart Environmentalism” an “Eco-Realist”* Steven is careful to sort out fact from fiction when it comes to environmental issues. “I am an eco-optimist, I believe that there is a bright future ahead.
Technology has been the source of wonderful advancements in the quality of life for the entire human race. It has made all of our lives easier in many ways that we often take for granted. Just ask your grandparents if they would like to go back to the days of the horse and buggy with all of the lovely things that came with them I.e. horse droppings, flies everywhere all the time. Imagine life without electricity, no refrigerator no air-conditioning in the summer etc.
When it comes to environmental concerns we need to be cautious to sort out the real science from the hype that often surrounds environmental issues, There are numerous examples of exaggeration and manipulation of the facts for the sake of promoting a political ideology or making money.
This only serves to destroy credibility with the public and the result is lots of money wasted trying to fix things that are not broken.Everyone today is “going green” I’m going “yellow” yellow stands” for proceed with caution”, I want to be cautious and find the facts behind an issue. We have been fooled before by wild and exaggerated claims of certain doom that turned out to be false. DDT, ASBESTOS, MAN MADE GLOBAL WARMING, OZONE DEPLETION, Etc I’ts not cool to be a fooI, If it’s not broken don’t fix it!
I believe we will continue to employ our knowledge and ingenuity to develop better solutions to the environmental challenges that we will inevitably face as we work together for a better future on planet earth”.
Soli Deo Gloria
If Steven is passionate about his artwork he is equally passionate about his beliefs. “As a Christian, I am dedicated to giving honor through my artwork and my life to the greatest artist, the one who I believe created all of this natural beauty in the first place. God is truly awesome, and the real inspiration behind everything that I paint. While some choose to believe in ‘Mother Earth” I choose to believe in “Father God” who is alive and capable of careful design and deliberate creation. I believe that I will become a better artist as I seek to understand how He has created this beautiful world that we find ourselves in. Soli Deo Gloria means to God Alone the Glory!”
