Tracy was born in Newfoundland and has lived in many cities throughout Canada.Her first experiences as an artist were at a young age in Timmins Ontario, where she won many awards and was included in gallery shows igniting her desire to continue to create.

Nature calls to her through her Algonquin roots, inspiring paintings of nature that are both intuitive and colourful.

As an adult, Tracy opened Cailuan Gallery/Studios in Cornwall Ontario. Through running the gallery and taking a pandemic "break" she realized that it was time to focus on her own work for awhile, so she sold the gallery and moved to Toronto where she now lives and continues to create full time from her home studio in the Toronto Beaches. This March Tracy and an artist friend, Gail Williams opened The Jackalope Gallery and enjoy representing artists with shows, events and a beautiful space for creatives to gather.
