Artist Statement
Tracy (she/her) introduces a new series each year for the Studio Tour. 2023 will feature painted portraiture: the culmination of many years of pencil portraits translated into the expressive painted brushwork and vibrant color she is known for. Commissioned portraits in either pencil or oil are available as well.
The artist still has a good selection of contemporary color field paintings and encaustic monotype prints, many will be marked with special pricing for the studio tour event.
