Although teachers often cited his artistic ability, Steve Hanks’ main interest while growing
up around San Francisco was sports. “Surfing
had a strong influence on my paintings,” he
says. “The ocean often appears in my work,
because I have such strong feelings for it.”
After high school, Hanks enrolled in
summer session commercial art courses at the
Academy of Art in San Francisco. “The only
way I could convince my parents to let me go was to say I was
going into commercial art,” he says.“I didn’t even know what that
was!” He did well in his commercial art classes, but it was a life
drawing class that captured his interest. He focused his energy on
the study of anatomy and figure drawing and transferred to the
California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California. He
graduated in the 1960s with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and
then moved back to New Mexico in search of a home art gallery.
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 learned from other mediums, he found he could create watercolors as “finished” as oils.
Steve Hanks’ paintings are much more than endearing
images of women and children. Rather than conveying a specific message through his paintings, Hanks prefers to explore memories and emotions.“My paintings speak to the vulnerability that
we all feel from time to time.They evoke nostalgia, transporting
us back in time,” Hanks says. “All art is an escape to somewhere
you want to be or a feeling you want to have. People see different things in my paintings because we all have diverse backgrounds and feelings.”
Steve’s award list is extensive: the Arts for the Parks Marine
Art Award of Excellence (1990 and 1994); one of the Arts for the
Parks top 100 artists since 1989; the National Watercolor Society
Merit Award (1991); the National Academy of Western Art Gold
Medal (1992); he has been one of U.S. Art magazine’s top ten
American artists since 1993; Pacific Rim Artist of the Year
(1999); 2000, U.S. Art Hall of Fame (2000); top 25 selling artists
of Decor magazine (2002); The 7th Annual Andre Agassi Grand
Slam for Children (2002).
