Tracy C Gansrow is an award winning, professionally trained artist. She earned her degree in Art Education and continued her education earning a certification in computer graphics. Tracy was a military “brat”, born in Heirlin, Holland. Her family traveled mostly when she was in elementary school but settled at the USMA, West Point where she had the privilege of living for almost 17 years. Tracy has a verve for the arts trying her hand at a myriad of mediums. However, painting and drawing have always been her true passion since she was a little girl. She has been a member of several galleries in both NC and SC. Her work has been sold to collectors all over the country, including the permanent collections of N. Charleston, SC. Tracy’s inspiration comes from nature mostly but more recently the emotion of her subjects to include her lovable pup Roxy. Hence the birth of her book series, Roxy the Funny Face Pup.
