Stephen Smith
Stephen's artwork is many-faceted. From photography to woodworking, his inspiration can be traced to the sculptural beauty that intrinsically surrounds us. His artistic life path has taken him in many directions from teaching to creating fine art.
Trained as a woodworker/sculptor, Stephen's influences very from Dali to Greene and Greene, to Wendell Castle and Sam Maloof.
The woodworking aspects of his portfolio use a variety of styles and techniques. From stack lamination to fine joinery, Stephen likes to incorporate all in the creative process. Attention to fine detail is essential, and each piece is finished from the inside out. All work is meticulously sanded and hand-rubbed with multiple coats of an oil finish.
