About Steve Lush

North Andover, MA

Steve's journey as an artist is a captivating narrative of passion, evolution in the world of art, deeply rooted in his upbringing and life experiences. From an early age, Steve was immersed in an artistic environment, with a mother who excelled as a fine art painter. His early artistic expressions were in the form of drawings and cartoons, heavily influenced by Saul Steinberg's illustrations in the New Yorker.
As Steve grew, so did his artistic interests. He experimented with various mediums, including model ship building, watercolors, oils, collage, mixed media and welded steel sculpture.
Steve's creative skills and unique perspective have earned him the status of Signature Member in several esteemed art organizations, including the American Watercolor Society, the Transparent Watercolor Society of America, the American Society of Marine Artists, the New England Watercolor Society, and the New England Sculptors Association. His works are part of private and corporate collections internationally and across the United States such as the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and the Museum of America and the Sea (Mystic Seaport).
Steve’s work was featured in the 2014 HBO mini-series "Olive Kitteredge," highlighting his influence in popular culture. He is currently represented by Cortile Gallery in Provincetown, MA, and the Gallery at 4 India in Nantucket.
