Steve Henderson Representational Landscapes and Seascapes Fine artist Steve Henderson focuses on rural landscapes and seascapes of the Pacific Northwest, in addition to executing figurative work and commissioned portraiture. Having worked in the illustration field for the past 20 years, Steve is familiar with a variety of styles and media techniques, and for his fine artwork, prefers a representational style that pays attention to pertinent detail without overwhelming the senses by too much of it. A 1984 Fine Arts graduate of Central Washington University, Ellensburg, WA, Steve has divided his time between commercial and medical illustration, graphic design, commissioned portraiture, and fine art oil and watercolor work. He embraces the mission of Western Art in the 21st century by painting the countryside and life of the rural Northwest, which he believes to be in a state of decrease as modern life and industry discover previously overlooked small towns and hamlet

Steve has bicycled through South America three times, with one two-year odyssey taking him from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego at the tip of Argentina. He presently lives in rural Dayton, WA, a one-stoplight town at the base of the Blue Mountains, with his wife and children.
