From Ali to Yogi, from Bogart to Brando, from Eastwood to Evel Knievel, Holland is the master of painting the “tough guys” of sports and celebrity. There is struggle and triumph, grit and glory, humanity and spirit, in every Holland painting.?Holland has garnered the respect given to a master painter, witnessed by the numerous commissions and accolades he receives in the field of music and sports, including The American Sport Art Museum and Archives, Los Angeles Kings, ’96 Olympics, The Grammy’s, LA Dodgers, Major League Baseball, Baltimore Ravens, Colorado Avalanche and proud private collectors worldwide.


Stephen Holland, born in 1941, is an American artist raised in New York. He is best known for his portraits of athletes and celebrities. As a young painter, Holland could not afford to hire live models. The images he found in boxing magazines became his subjects. There he saw the male form in all its power and flory, expressed as contemporary gladiators. As a child Stephen Holland was handicapped and had to watch his family and friends play sports . The steel brace he wore on his leg prevented him from attending neighborhood schools. But handicaps often heighten one’s other sensitivities. This proved true for Stephen Holland, his talents developed elsewhere.


Stephen Holland’s gift for drawing grew as he sat and sketched his friends. Though his mother used to say he began drawing as soon as he could hold a pencil, Stephen’s abilities actually blossomed while attending a special high school which devoted half of each day to art studies. He later attended The School of Art and Design, Art Students League, The School of Visual Arts, and Pratt Institute. Holland has garnered the respect given to a master painter, witnessed by the numerous commissions and accolades he receives in the field of music and sports, including The American Sport Art Museum and Archives, Los Angeles Kings, ’96 Olympics, The Grammy’s, LA Dodgers, Major League Baseball, Baltimore Ravens, Colorado Avalanche and proud private collectors worldwide.
