Using the mediums of oil or pastel I create
paintings reflecting my varied interests.
“Traditional Realism” describes my painting style.
From a distance all of my paintings look “real,”
but up close you will see an illusion of reality
created by using the compositional skills of color,
tone, line, value, and lighting to make the most of
the subjects in each painting.

Through the use of oils
Tracy captures beautiful
portraits and landscapes in
realistic and impressionistic
styles. From photo realistic

painting has its own voice,
feel and story.
