	===My Early Life===		===My Early Life===

	My early life played a major role in shaping my future and my art but I guess my art work has yet to sum me up. Some of my art is accidental and depicts my state of mind at the time and not essentially reflecting the core of who I am. I am sure many people who know me probably don’t see me as an artist at all. To them I am just Steve, a quirky friend with a dry sense of humour and a rather odd but passionate outlook on life. It has been my outer life and general art which is shared with those, but it is my inner life which required ~~ex- pression~~ and was shared with just a few. Only they have seen my double life, but in the last decade have I started to come out of the artists’ closet to a wider circle and the general public.

	I was born in [[Harlow]], Essex in 1958. My father was a labourer and eventual Ford worker and my mother was an occasional usherette at local cinemas. My family appeared on the outside to live a basic and simple life. Behind the closed doors, however, I had to cope at a young age with a mother who was emotionally charged and unwell, brought about by wrong medical diagnosis, and a father who had to work nightshifts and manage the stress of a wife with the onset of mental illness. It was a roller coaster of emotions in my young childhood.		I was born in [[Harlow]], Essex in 1958.

	By the mid 1980’s I was working with Capital Radio, through its Jobmate programme, in which I was heavily engaged in supporting the young unemployed of London. I was soon pushing the boundaries and using the music connections by engaging famous bands to perform and support the young unemployed. I was feeling the strain of giving all the time and taking little to support myself.

I was soon pushing the boundaries and using the music connections by engaging famous bands to perform and support the young unemployed. I was feeling the strain of giving all the time and taking little to support myself.
	It was in the mid 1990’s that my past came back to haunt me. I felt desperately low and suicidal, having given all my energy to others. I was poor at sustaining intimate relationships other than for sex, so I reached out for help from Richard Mowbray and Julianna Brown at the Primal Integration Centre. Seven years of intense therapy created a bridge between the past and the present and enabled me to explore my lifelong dilemmas. I started drawing and painting again, creating works in therapy reminiscent of Walter Gropius from the Bauhaus movement. I also started collecting art by Jean Cocteau with his striking portraits of young men, and works by Keith Vaughan with his disfigured and powerful representation of the male form. But it was Christopher Wood, English Painter, depicting scenes of his journey in life and of his male love that influenced me the most. This was the world I wished to portray through my art.
