A work by Steve Fritsch
In 1969, he married his wife Linda and accepted a position as art director with BBDO in New York City. In his free time, he painted and freelanced doing illustrations, cartooning, and finished art.
Art direction and freelance kept him pretty busy. In 1978, he left the agency and started his own studio in New York City. Twenty years later, he decided to work out of his house in Darien and moved his studio home.
Steve has created art for many years, be it illustrations in mixed media or fine art in oils and has recently started exhibiting his work at art shows in the local area.
He hopes you enjoy them.
