David Tracey is a contemporary artist living and working in Sydney, Australia. He creates beautiful art that reflects the modern world as perceived through digital techniques. Tracey has a background as a scenic artist, where he painted large sets and backdrops for film and television. This high-pressure job with short deadlines provided him with invaluable experience and enjoyment.

With the rise of computer graphics, Tracey transitioned to creating realistic animated content, specializing in environments and surface textures. However, he eventually returned to painting, finding it to be the most satisfying medium. He now focuses on portraits and skyscapes, sometimes combining both on the same canvas, using oil and acrylic to depict the rich and beautiful modern world.

Tracey’s work is heavily influenced by his experiences in modern disciplines such as film, computer graphics, and photography. He integrates these elements into his paintings to meet the expectations of the modern eye, using flares, artifacts, and scattering to create visually satisfying pieces that are clearly handmade and showcase human creativity. He admires artists like Elizabeth Vigee Le Brun, William Bouguereau, and Marcel Marlier for their mastery of realistic style and technique, especially in creating believable skin tones.
