Steve Rowe Images

Creativity has been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. From drawing on the walls with crayons as a toddler to sketching band logos across my school books, I’ve always been happiest with a pencil or later, an iPad pencil in hand. even then, I loved bringing together different ideas to create something fresh and unexpected.  
For many years I ran a successful photography business, capturing stories through a lens. When the pandemic disrupted that chapter, I used it as a turning point. I shifted focus, blending an eye for detail with my love of illustration, and began producing hand-drawn digital portraits and designs on my iPad Pro.
Working with vector artwork opened up a new world: portraits that sit somewhere between caricature and fine art, bold enough for large-scale high quality prints yet personal enough to make people smile. After experimenting with different print formats, I found that high quality canvas brings the colours and textures to life in the best way possible, making each piece an ideal centrepiece to showcase on any chosen wall.
Today, I create bespoke digital artwork that celebrates people from all walks of life. From the worlds of music and sport, to celebrities  and characters from the world of movies and tv. I also try my hand at creating images of nature and abstract objects. All of which are designed to last and add vibrancy to any space. Every piece begins with a simple joy to create – the same spark that once sent this child reaching for his crayons or pencils.
Nothing gives me greater pleasure than witnessing the pleasure experienced by the viewer of my work, especially for the very first time. I hope you enjoy your visit to my website galleries and find something that you like!
