My name is Steve Avey. I am a digital artist based in the United States. I can be reached at steveaveyartist@gmail.com. I have been creating digital art for 9 years after retiring as a landscape artist. 

To me, an artist’s work is an expression of the subconscIous and beyond. It is a glimpse into a universe hidden from human awareness. I attempt to explore this with the improvisational and free-form techniques I use to create my work. I believe one of the driving forces behind my work is the serious mental health issues that have been a challenge since my late teenage years. My art is not only therapeutic, it is my life. 

Photoshop is my medium and my passion. Many of the techniques I use I developed myself. Beauty is paramount to me. I strive to create images that are accessible yet sophisticated. I attempt to speak to as diverse an audience as possible. I prefer spontaneity over control, the visceral over the intellectual, clarity over obfuscation, order over chaos, humility over pretension, diversity over exclusion and the spiritual over the worldly. I believe this is what my art conveys.
