Moody. Woeful. Seductive. Melodic. The characters Steve Smock brings to life on canvas have secrets that draw you deep into their world. And challenge you to imagine what truths they hide behind their expressive eyes. Steve's fascination with both delicate beauties and old souls comes through in every stroke. Sometimes restrained. Sometimes exuberant. But always alive.

One of the most promising American artists of our time, Steve’s work viscerally connects to an older world. It's a rare talent who can blend the patina of old wisdom with the wonder of a new era. His growing body of work does so with captivating elegance and startling simplicity.
