MEET TRACEY
Artist, Life Coach, Teacher
Great to meet you, I'm so glad you're here
THE TRUTH IS, I'D MUCH RATHER TALK ABOUT YOU. BUT, WHEN I CLICK ON AN ‘ABOUT’ TAB, I WANT TO LEARN ABOUT THE REAL HUMAN I'M MEETING IN CYBERSPACE. THE FLAWED, IMPERFECT CREATURE DOING THEIR BEST TO BE AUTHENTIC IN THE CRAZY WORLD. SO, HERE GOES:
Hi, I'm Tracey
I live with my salt of the earth farmer by a billabong on our cattle and grain property in Central Queensland, which we run with our three adult sons.
My days are spent between my studio, painting, writing and creating, and my cozy attic coaching space, supporting awesome humans as they navigate towards a life they love living, and my office, managing the administration and accounting for our family farming business. Oh, and the kitchen…. not because I want to, not because I love to cook; but because when you have a bunch of hungry humans around, engaging in hard physical work, they need feeding. Frequently.
Occasionally, I need to chase a cow out of my backyard before I can hang the washing out to dry.

INVISIBLE THINGS AND OTHER TRUTHS
I love people AND I'm an introvert. Solitude is like oxygen for me. (Don't tell anyone - but sometimes when surrounded by humans, I'll go to the bathroom so I can sit alone for a minute).
I love woo-woo stuff. The weird, mystical, magical and inexplicable are endlessly fascinating to me, which probably explains why the art I make is all an attempt to make the invisible visible.
I've known darkness and I reach for the light.
My gardening expertise is limited to this: Put it in the ground with the green bit facing UP.
I believe the solution to every problem is to pour love all over it. And I know that pouring love over some problems is the hardest work we will ever be asked to do.
CREDENTIALS AND CUROSITIES
As a coach, I'm a certified Martha Beck Wayfinder Life Coach, and I also hold an ACC credential with the International Coaching Federation - which is reassurance that the coaching you’ll get from me meets some pretty exacting standards.
As an artist, I’ve been regularly exhibiting art in solo and group exhibitions and teaching art workshops and classes for over fifteen years. I've won numerous art prizes and had two artworks selected as finalists in the prestigious Lethbridge Small Works Prize. My art is owned by private collectors in several countries, and has even been gifted to a member of the Tongan Royal Family.


Work with me

COACHING
I help creatives who are stuck, to get free of the muck and make the art they love without giving a f*#k
(and not just creatives!)
I'll listen in a way that helps you hear what's really going on - and support you as you find your way through it.
I always keep some spots open for clients who cannot pay full price. If this is true for you please let me know during your free consultation.

ONLINE CLASSES
Membership in The Artful Life Collective - my creative tribe gathers twice a month in real time, with all calls recorded.
You can make art in your PJ's and not have to leave the comfort of your own creative space, while sharing ideas with and learning from an awesome bunch of creatives from across the globe.
OR
A self paced, 6 lesson class designed to help you tame your inner critic, with pre-recorded video lessons. You'll not only make a new friend, you'll also learn how to draw faces, and make a portrait of your inner critic.

IN PERSON CLASSES
I offer some in person workshops at my home studio every year, join my subscriber tribe to get first dibs on spots.
Got a special birthday or event to celebrate - why not book a private workshop? (Yes! You CAN!)
I'm open to travelling to you, too. Shoot me an email with your location, preferred workshop to request a quote
