He graduated from Cornell University with a BS in computer science in 2019, after which he spent a year studying art with the Lorenzo de Medici Institute and Chiaroscuro Studio in Florence, Italy.
Steven prefers painting plein air and all prima for its intimacy and its truthfulness to nature, and is inspired by the techniques of master artists such as John Singer Sargent, Joaquin Sorolla, and Edgar Payne.
