Tracy Lupanow
I discovered at the young age of 10 that I had a talent for realistically drawing and painting the fascinating things in my world. As an adult, I developed my artistic skill by taking college art classes and studying watercolor painting. I enjoyed painting florals and landscapes in watercolor for many years but decided I wanted to grow as an artist and try something totally new. Really wanting to step out of my comfort zone, I chose to take my work in an abstract direction.
My journey into abstraction began as I took workshops and classes. I began learning a tremendous amount about acrylic paint, collage, monoprints, and numerous abstract techniques. I discovered at a workshop in Sedona that painting intuitively and abstractly gave me the opportunity to paint what I was feeling with no image in mind. That made my heart happy! My abstract journey began about seven years ago, and I know will continue for many years to come!
