Steve Tracy was born in Santa Clara, California in 1953. He began his artistic training at the School of Visual Arts in New York City and then at the American Art Institute in Colorado. Steve then moved to California, where he joined the Kala Institute in Berkeley. While exhibiting his work in several galleries, Steve worked in the film industry as a stage artist and stage manager for IMAX and HBO. He won an Emmy Award in 1991 for his work in the HBO film “Dawns Early Light”. At an art show in Florida, Steve met the love of his life, whom he decided to follow to Ontario and quickly succumbed to the vastness of the Canadian landscape: “The more I travel and discover the beauty of Canada, the more I want to capture it in painting,” he says. As a result, he developed several series on the landscapes and wildlife of Western Canada. Steve is still lives in Ontario (Canada). His new collection “Extreme Skiers” can be found in Canada (Quebec and British Columbia), in the USA (Colorado) and in France (Megève and Courchevel).
