Craig Tracy, 1967 | Fine-Art Bodypainting

Never one to be satisfied with conventional art, Craig Tracy has created mesmerizing images using human bodies as his canvases since 2001.

Tracy was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The city’s colorful and vibrant culture played an integral role in developing Tracy’s passion for art, including his family’s tradition of painting each other’s faces in celebration of Mardi Gras. His parents nurtured his individuality and creativity, with Tracy attributing their "Flower Power" and “Power to the People” mentalities as being responsible for how he views art and life.

Tracy received his first airbrush at the age of 15 from his parents, and one year later, at the age of 16, he took his first steps into the professional art world by working nights and weekends as an airbrush artist.

The experience taught him how to paint detailed works on a myriad of surfaces. He would later hone his artistic abilities by attending and graduating from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale in Florida.

The gallery allows even the most seasoned art collectors and novices alike to see and experience first hand what Body-painting is ultimately capable of expressing.

Kaspar von Zumbusch | Beethoven Monument, Vienna, 1880

Kaspar [Clemens Eduard] Zumbusch (1830-1915), 1888 Ritter von Zumbusch (a nobiliary particle), was a German sculptor, born at Herzebrock, Westphalia, who became a pre-eminent sculptor of neo-Baroque monuments in Vienna.

He went at the age of eighteen to study in Munich at first unsuccessfully at the Academy and then Polytechische Schule under Johann Halbig.

He continued his studies in Rome.

He won the competition in 1866 for a monument to Maximilian II of Bavaria, for the Maximilianstraße, Munich (unveiled 1875).

In 1873 he was called to Vienna as professor in the academy, a post he held until he was made Professor Emeritus in 1901.

Goyo Dominguez, 1960 | Romantic / Abstract painter

Goyo Dominguez🎨's compositions, depicted with great technical skill and style, are compelling and serene, often with enchanting subject matters.

His fascination with works of the 16th and 17th centuries inspires his favourite themes; still life, the human body and landscape.

The intriguing result is a contemporary fusion of Renaissance Europe and the Classical World, often combined with elements of the abstract, transcending the classical past and the present day.

Rachel Ferguson | Figurative painter

Rachel Ferguson, american painter: "Solitude is a form of self protection. It is a place where one can avoid responsibilities to others and deny any need for approval. It allows time to escape from the demands of day to day life. It is simple, contained and still.
My paintings are meant to convey the comfort of solitude, but they also reveal its limits. The figures are confined by the space they occupy and their bodies are rendered inactive by their thoughts.
Ultimately, the security their contained poses suggest should lead one to think of entrapment. My work attempts to communicate both a dependence on solitude and a yearning for some outside force to break it".

Craig Tracy ~ Body Art painter

Born and Raised in New Orleans La, Craig Tracy, American painter, has always been an Artist. Craig credits New Orleans with it's authentic and vibrant culture as a significant factor in what is at the heart of his passion, creativity and bliss. His parents and their “Hippie” nonconformist principles were instilled firmly in the young artist. Coincidentally, it was that same hippie movement that re-ignited the soon to be interest and practice of Bodypainting in the western world.
