As a representational artist who is greatly influenced by the Dutch Masters, Stürcke seeks to impart sincerity, contemplation, and an admiration for the classical in a contemporary world by depicting the personal, the emotional, and the quiet elegance in his paintings through light, shadow, and texture.
“I aim to create an allegorical narrative and an intriguing balance within the realm of light and dark,” said Stürcke. Soon after his military service, Stürcke enrolled in art workshops and courses at several local art associations and colleges while launching his illustration career under the mentorship of Mike Butkus. “Working as an illustrator served me for honing many techniques and found pastels to be my principal medium of choice,” said Stürcke. In recent years, Stürcke has garnered numerous awards for his works, including Master Circle Status with the International Association of Pastel Societies, Master Pastelist title and the Art Spirit Foundation Dianne B. Bernhard Gold Medal Award by the Pastel Society of America. He was awarded Best In Show in the inaugural ART 2021 Tehachapi exhibition. In 2020 he was invited to exhibit in the 6th Annual Zhuhai International Pastel Exhibition in China and for several years has been designated as part of the Butler Institute of American Art Selection. Stürcke’s works are included in the American Latino Collective at the Smithsonian Museum and was nominated as "Best of 2012" by Art Los Angeles Magazine. Other awards include, Best of Show & 1st Place Award at the 4th Annual Rejoice In Art! National Exhibition, 1st Place in Pastel Journal’s 19th Annual Pastel 100 Competition Animal/Wildlife Category, 1st Place in the 8th Annual Members Show of the Pastel Society of Southern California, Stabilo Award at the 1st International Pastel Exhibition in Rome, the Robert & Patricia Suggs Award, the Goodmundson Family Award, and the Jack Richeson Platinum Award by the Pastel Society of the West Coast. His work has been published in the French publication “40 Maitres du Pastel” (40 Masters of Pastel) by Pratiqu des Arts Magazine, “The Art of Chalk” by Tracy Lee Stum, and as “Artist of Note” by Southwest Art Magazine.
