Discover Breckenridge Fine Arts Center Art Gallery

  Steve Miller is a Texas-based artist whose work spans a lifetime of visual storytelling — from commercial illustration, 3D modeling, and museum exhibits to hundreds of fine art paintings and drawings shown in galleries across the state. Born in Texas and raised across the American South and Appalachian Mountains, Steve paints in oils, Casein, pastels, and charcoal, working both plein air and in the studio. His subjects range from the humid, moss-draped landscapes of the Deep South to the vast, open skies of West Texas, and his driving pursuit is the same across all of them: the way light and shadow shape a face, a hillside, or a horizon to reveal beauty, depth, and sometimes mystery. A recipient of local and national awards in multiple mediums, Steve approaches each painting as a record of a journey — one that tells smaller, human-scaled stories of the people, places, and creation he encounters along the way. As he puts it, "My foundational goal as an artist is to render the beauty of the incredible creation around us, a world that was created by an awesome God."
