My "reality with a twist" style explores my subjects through my own personal/unexpected lens. Tracy has been painting since 1980s, and has been painting full time since 2001. Her interest in painting grew out of her love for photography. Her body of work reflects her interest in using a variety of styles and media to explore layers, depth, and distance. Because she has a photographer's eye even her portraits have strong compositions. She very consciously works to capture a feeling of depth in her paintings even when working in a narrow picture plane or painting an abstract. On a physical level, Tracy layers her two-dimensional works by building the paintings' final colors and values using methods, including glazing, learned during her 17 years as purely a watercolorist. The layers in her work often go beyond the physical, allowing viewers to appreciate a piece in a somewhat different way. Her favorite pieces incorporate unusual points of view or sometimes unexpected compositions and pairing of pictorial elements. Titles of paintings are important to Tracy. She uses them to help the viewer to look at the image in a different way. She sees this as mental layering, and thus refers to her style as "reality with a twist." Tracy has studied art in England, Ireland, and Oregon, as well as in her home area, Lancaster, PA. She regularly participates in group shows, and has had work accepted in juried shows. She also has had three one-woman shows. Her work is in private and corporate collections in her home area, as well as in Oregon, California, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, and Europe.Created With Quick Blogcast
