Stephen Schaps - Fine Artist
Member Since: 07/20/2010
Steve Schaps became interested in art at the early age of four when he lived just a few houses down from an art school in Denver Colorado. There he pestered the teachers and artists with questions until they finally gave him a brush, paint, and a canvass to keep him busy. Later, he received an oil paint set for Christmas and has been painting ever since. His father was a photographer and gave him a camera when he was ten years old. Steve impressed everyone with the pictures that he took, even at this young age.
'My brother open a photo-print store in Estes and I sold 3-D pictures through his store. Colorado offers remarkable scenes: landscapes, wildlife, sunsets, and other photographic opportunities. At the present, I am taking advantage of new digital photography and web shopping improvements like this web-site to make my photographs available to everyone.'
“I am most impressed with the idea of having a legacy, something that lives beyond me. I was successful at engineering disk drives which were manufactured and distributed worldwide, but after a few years they became obsolete and were scrapped. That was a shock to me and brought my attention back to art and photography. I want to produce quality paintings and unique photographs because they will gain in value and become a treasure over time.”
Steve enjoys hiking and exploring trails on his dirt bike in the Colorado Mountains in the summer and skiing and ice-skating in the winter. His hobbies are oil painting, astronomy, and writing. He likes to spend weekends with his three children.
