Local Artist to be Featured at 3rd Annual NSAA Showcase

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

 NSAA is proud to introduce the works of Tracy Tamel Heerhold at our 3rd Annual Showcase!  Please join us for this great networking event! 

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY:

The combination of photography and digital painting allows Tracy Heerhold to not only preserve a moment in time, but also to enhance those moments with a creative vision as well. 

Tracy’s love of photography stems from her interest in a variety of subjects including rural landscapes, seasonal conditions, travel and historic architecture. Whenever possible, Tracy enjoys the thrill of taking photos of the same locations in different seasons to fully appreciate them throughout the year. 

Tracy lives in Jackson, WI and has been involved in digital art and photography for a number of years.  She always looks forward to the next opportunity she will have to capture a moment in time. 

Tracy is a member of the Cedarburg Artist Guild and currently has work on display at locations in Cedarburg, West Bend and Hartland, Wisconsin.  She also had her first solo show at Mosquito Hill Nature Center in New London, WI from December 5th 2009 through February, 2010. Prior locations for her work also included the Center for Visual Arts, a juried gallery and shop as well as Evolutions in Design, both in Wausau, Wisconsin.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ARTWORK:

Tracy’s artwork combines both photography and digital painting, which is essentially painting by using software on a computer.  Tracy uses the digital painting component to fully achieve a vision that she has in mind upon noticing and experiencing a subject through a camera lens.
