Hello, I'm Steve Lowtwait.

I'm an illustrator, cartoonist, and entrepreneur in Boulder, Colorado. I hold passions for art, storytelling, the great outdoors, and technology.

 
 

Atypical

Differentiation is my muse. While I welcome influence, I seek purity in the act of creation. Details matter in my aesthetic distinction, but it is my conceptual scrutiny that yields a great reception. In other words, I see and do things differently.

Diverse

Creativity is oft defined as the result of melding alternate concepts into a unique outcome. An array of experiences is the most potent of ingredients in this recipe. If differentiation is my muse, then variety is what I feed her.

Ambitious

It takes guts to try new things, but the brave commit. I've built to fail and I've built to succeed. Creating a great measure of meaning and value are my aspirations made from passion and late nights. My muse is not only an artist, but an entrepreneur.
