Original watercolors - wildlife, New England scenesSteve Hamlin has drawn and painted since childhood. His work reflects three life-long passions: nature, history and architecture. Over the last decade, Hamlin has become increasingly focused on wildlife painting, especially birds. He and his wife Linda travel as much as time and money allow in search of wildlife. “I use only my own photographs and field experience as primary reference material in my work. To date, our travels have been almost strictly domestic, which suits me just fine. I find interesting subject matter everywhere.”
For the past five years, Hamlin has taught adult drawing and watercolors at the George Walter Vincent Art Museum Art School at the Quadrangle in Springfield, MA.
