Current Work

For the past year I've been working on a series of small pastels of imagined people in imagined landscapes. I like to think of these as illustrations for a story that I haven't gotten around to writing yet. Here's a small sample of these images. (All images © 2006-2009 Stephen Lewontin)

These days I'm working on larger pieces in a variety of media, but with many of the same themes. New images are coming soon.
