Gary Slipper (1934-2019) was born in Calgary, Alberta. His father was Stanley Edes Slipper, a surveyor and geologist who discovered several gas fields in the Peace River area. As a child, Gary thought he would either become a geologist like his father or an artist. Slipper showed early artistic promise, beginning to paint at the age of 9. By 11 years old, Slipper had enrolled in night classes and was studying at a number of arts institutions both domestic and abroad, including the Allied Arts Centre in Banff, the Banff School of Fine Arts, the Vancouver School of Art, and the American Academy of Art in Chicago. Slipper quit school at the age of 15 to focus on his art; “Painting came hard for me,” Slipper said of his work (Hamilton Spectator, 1965). Slipper later continued his education in Italy and Spain, where he studied at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes in San Fernando, Madrid in 1953.
