Artist' artwork/info

Steve Henderson's Bio:

Steve Henderson specializes in the impressionistic realism school of painting, focusing on rural landscapes of the Pacific Northwest and foreign vistas of Colombia, Venezuela, and Peru in South America. A member of the Oil Painters of America, Henderson addresses his subject matter with bold brushstrokes, blended and swept into loose detail.

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 work.

Steve shows his work in Eastern Washington and Oregon. He speaks to public and private area school groups concerning careers in the field of art, and for the last eight years has targeted community members of all ages to present their artwork through the Columbia County Fair.
