STEVE HANKS (1949-2015) Although teachers often cited his artistic ability, Steve Hanks' main interest while growing up in California was sports. As a teen, Steve pursued surfing and tennis with passion. Although it was apparent early on that he had talent, he refused to do the required assignments in his high school art class and earned a grade of "C." "To prove I was good, I did a one-man show at the high school and sold my first painting to another art teacher," he said. After high school, Steve enrolled in summer session commercial art courses at the Academy of Art in San Francisco. He did well in his commercial art classes, but it was life drawing that captured his interest. He focused his energy on the study of anatomy and figure drawing and transferred into the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, graduating with his BFA. Initially, he drew in pencil and painted in oils. His paintings were impressionistic while his drawings were more realistic. Eventually, an allergic reaction to oils forced him to experiment with watercolors. Using the techniques he learned from other mediums, he found he could create watercolors as "finished" as oils. Steve's paintings are much more than endearing images of women and children. Rather than conveying a specific message through his paintings, he prefers to explore memories and emotions. His highly-collected nudes convey an introspective solitude that prompts the viewer to think about his or her own life and path. Art jurors began recognizing the quality of his work in 1973. His credits include honors from Arts for the Parks, the National Watercolor Society, the National Academy of Western Art, U.S. Art Magazine, the Pacific Rim Exposition and the Gilcrease Museum. Steve died of cancer in April 2015.
