Beneath The Quiet Sky

Mixed media on 300gsm paper — cold wax, oil, ink, soft pastel, and charcoal.

Beneath the Quiet Sky captures a moment of stillness within the Australian hinterland — a landscape veiled in mist and the delicate glow of first light. Through layered applications of cold wax, oil, ink, pastel, and charcoal, the painting reveals both fragility and quiet resilience in nature’s shifting moods.
Soft veils of colour drift across the surface, suggesting forms half-remembered — trees, water, and air merging in a suspended state of calm. The work reflects a continuing exploration of memory and atmosphere, where the visible and the felt converge. It invites pause — a contemplative breath beneath the quiet sky, where light and silence become one.

Dear art collectors,

You are warmly invited to contact Tracey-ann via Bluethumb to discuss commissions or enquire about current projects and emerging available works. She welcomes collaborations and is happy to support special orders for new and returning collectors.
________________________________________________________________________________________________

Originally from Melbourne, Tracey-ann relocated to Noosa Heads on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast ten years ago, where the surrounding natural beauty continues to inspire her artistic journey. Working both en plein air and in the studio, she draws deeply on the atmosphere and spirit of the natural environment. Her creative process often begins with photographing the ocean, hinterland rainforests, and the outback, gathering visual and emotional impressions that later evolve into richly layered artworks.

Tracey-ann’s mixed media practice embraces high-quality, archival materials including acrylic, Indian ink, alcohol inks, natural avocado seed ink, fixed charcoal, oil paint, cold wax medium, fixed soft pastel, and watercolour. Through these mediums, she explores texture, transparency, and the subtle interplay of light and mood.

Her intention is to evoke a sense of peace and connection — inviting viewers to feel at one with nature through her atmospheric interpretations of the Australian landscape.

In order to keep costs low for collectors, artwork is created using high quality archival materials, with the option of purchasing without framing. All canvas paintings are ready to hang and have clean finished edges, as shown in the images in the curation. Paintings completed on paper are fixed and are ready to frame. Many collectors prefer to source their framing locally. Collectors can also use the framing service provided by Bluethumb during the purchasing process.
All paintings are sent using the Bluethumb courier system, are carefully packed and come with a completed certificate of authenticity, signed by the artist and then securely sent to collectors.
