Steve Lorber’s primary media are oil and watercolors. Along with his love of landscape paintings, he is an accomplished portrait artist. He is a member of the Portrait Society of America, the Pennsylvania Watercolor Society and the Philadelphia Sketch Club.
I use my brushes to paint what my heart feels and my eyes see. My brush bears witness to the beauty of nature. The tranquility I achieve comes from nature, whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter. The changes of the seasons are the source of my inspiration. I always paint what I see without worrying about the process.
For me, art means capturing an instantaneous moment and recording it on canvas. Nature does not stand still. We live in a fast-paced technical world, and sometimes we overlook the beauty that surrounds our everyday existence. I capture what is the present and becomes the past.
