About
My name is Stefanie Bretecher.
I am a self taught artist and have been creating stunning pieces of art since 2017 under my brand “Rugged Trail Art”. My passion for nature and wildlife is reflected in every piece I create, aiming to raise awareness for wildlife conservation.
My work has been featured in galleries across the province and sold internationally. I try to push the boundaries of my craft, using a variety of mediums and techniques to bring my subjects to life in new and exciting ways.
