Tracey Gibbs is an artist and author from Fremantle, Western Australia. With roots in wildflower country in the south west of Western Australia her fascination with botanicals is long-standing. Raised in a resourceful and creative family, her interest in art specifically took hold in high school, especially when she was first exposed to both Fauvism and especially Pop Art. Lurid, almost unnatural colour remains an obsession and features prominently in her work.

​

Tracey started her design career as a book designer (BA Graphic Design) and excelled in the field for over a decade. She relished the versatility of book design, and within a few years of beginning her graphic design career, Tracey started out on her own; freelancing within the publishing field. She loved the challenge of running her own business and grew a solid client base. She also had the opportunity to illustrate a few children’s books which had been a long-time goal of hers. 

​

In 2018 health issues forced Tracey up out of her computer chair and to pivot from Graphic Design and into Art. Printmaking, specifically screen printing has been a love of Tracey's from the first time she was exposed to it in high school. Tracey’s love of nature continues to influence her creative direction and she is excited to explore detail and joy in all its forms.

​

Using creativity as a springboard for her own recovery, Tracey became interested in the intersection between brain health and creative arts. She is currently studying this connection with the University of Tasmania and hopes to write more as she learns.

​

Tracey is also the illustrator and author of Let's Count Wildflowers, a baby book published by Fremantle Press that introduces our youngest nature lovers to our most precious native blooms. 

Tracey Gibbs is an artist and author working on Walyalup land in Fremantle Western Australia. She has a passion for creative projects of all kinds and a keen interest in the intersection between brain health and creativity.

 

With a particular focus in her own visual work on colour and form Tracey explores the natural surroundings around her.
