ABOUT ME

Hi! I’m Tracy — a self-taught painter living and creating in Baltimore City.

Hi! I’m Tracy — a self-taught painter living and creating in Baltimore City.

Versatility is at the heart of my practice, though painting is my true love. For over 20 years, I’ve been sharing my work throughout the DMV area and beyond. My journey began with a childhood passion for drawing and doodling, and over time, painting became my emotional outlet — a language I turned to when words fell short.

Art has brought me surprising and deeply fulfilling experiences. My work has been featured in exhibitions at the Banneker-Douglass Museum, in online magazines, at local galleries, churches, charity events, and community gatherings — even under open skies at En Plein Air festivals.

Currently, I’m exploring the joy of live wedding painting — capturing love in real time as it unfolds. As a “lover of love,” I feel most inspired when I’m immersed in that energy.

My style is often described as vibrant, bold, and eclectic. I love working with bright colors and mixing mediums and techniques to keep each piece authentic to its inspiration. Whether I’m painting an abstract expression of emotion or an impressionist landscape, my goal is always to reflect both my inner world and the world around me.

As a child, I loved to doodle on everything, from school notebooks to receipts. My imagination was free on any surface, and I'm happy to say I still have that passion today.
