Portrait of Abby by Steven Hawke (2004) Drawing by Steven Hawke

I spent many years operating a studio. It was interesting but remaining in a single city also has its drawbacks. I began traveling about six years ago.

I am currently drawing and painting as I travel in a Jeep CJ7 across the United States. This allows me to approach a variety of subjects on site, which is my preference.

I enjoy working with people and animals as well as landscapes, seascapes and scenes from the inner cities. Each area has its own unique challenges and rewards.

I most often prefer working with tools most people are familiar using. Pencils and ball point pens can create wonderous works of art and most can understand the challenges required to achieve the finished work.
