Born in Rockport Massachusetts, Stevens first studied with Parker Perkins and then went to the Boston Museum School and studied under Edmund Tarbell, Frank Benson, Philip Hale, and William Paxton. He taught at Princeton and Boston Universities and by 1964 won more awards than any other living artist. Stevens, along with his friend Aldro Hibbard, was instrumental in organizing the Rockport Art Association in 1921 with the goal of making art more accessible to common people. Later in his life, Stevens also organized the Conway Festival of the Hills and the Berkshire Arts Festival. He was a National Academician and a member of the American Watercolor Society. He was also a member of Springfield, MA Art League; Guild of Boston Artists; Gallery on Moors; New Haven Paint and Clay Club, CT; Gloucester Society of Art; North Shore Art Association; Boston Watercolor Club and the New York Watercolor Club.
