About Artist

Steve Sorensen

I am Steve Sorensen, a resident of Lone Tree, Colorado. I am a self-taught photographer, a work in progress, always seeking improvement, continually challenged, continually frustrated and euphoric with myriad possibilities. My world is not made of atoms, it’s made of tiny stories. It’s those tiny stories of mine that manifest themselves throughout my art. Every image is a unique story and must stand on its own merit and maybe/hopefully to evoke a visceral response in others. My stories begin with interesting patterns, complexities of lines, geometric entanglements, odd angles, radiant or muted color and anything reflected. Nature and magnificent animals are my soul…grounding me firmly to my humanness. Magic occurs if I can connect another human to natures gifts and have them appreciate it as much as I do.
