Dimensions: 101.6 x 76.2 cm (40 x 30"). Artist information: J. Steven Manolis (Steven) is the embodiment of the American Dream, rising from humble beginnings from a Greek and Swedish immigrant family from Huron, South Dakota, to achieve many pinnacles of success. Manolis knew that he wanted to be an artist by age 8, but his Greek Grandfather forbade it because all artists that he had known in Greece were communists. So, as an avid Yankees fan, he decided he would become a businessman in New York City. Manolis was a scholar and an athlete who lettered in three sports and graduated Summa Cum Laude. He also was the co-lead singer and guitar player in a Rock and Roll band named The Torres. By the time he was 18, he was financially independent from the money he earned playing with the band. He used his savings to put himself and his siblings through college and help with the family expenses. He was a member of the band until he graduated from college in 1970. “The Torres” were inducted into the South Dakota Midwest Hall of Fame in 2011. Manolis’ work ethic was instilled into him by his father and grandfather. This discipline of working hard, coupled with talent, helped him succeed in many endeavors. As he often says, “Talent without hard work is not good enough.” Provenance: Private Miami Collection.
