My name is Tracey Platt and I am self-taught mixed media artist based in Cornwall.

My story began in the autumn of 2015 when I decided I needed a hobby, firstly creating collages and making cards in a back room with limited space.  In 2017, I had a studio built in the garden which allowed me to become more experimental, doing larger pieces including acrylic paint pours (flow art/fluid art) and acrylic abstract work. I love to experiment with different materials, not always knowing what I will end up with.  I make my own painted papers so that I can be totally original.

Colour plays a big part in my life and this is evident in my work.  Many people have said how 'happy' my work is.  Why does a dog need to be brown when it can be a hot pink?

My other work includes hand painted bags and designing my own greetings cards.  My designs are generally quirky which make people smile and I love to paint seagulls, the coast, waves and mermaids (I call mine Cornish Sea Maidens). Other designs include abstract flowers, animals and people. I usually do a series on a particular subject. I have now began making beaded jewellery again. I first starting doing this in 2005. They were very popular and I sold every single piece I ever made. I thought it would be fun to make some more again. Check out my handmade jewellery section.

I have taken part in numerous exhibitions and fairs and set up and ran Lostwithiel Art Fair when I discovered there was a lack of venues and inexpensive opportunities for Cornish artists to show their work. I have now opened up a small gallery within my studio which is open to the public enabling me to meet my buyers.

I can undertake paint pouring commissions for art on canvas or wood up to 5ft x 2ft in size and prices start from £300 up to £1000.

I hope you find my website interesting and appealing. I have priced up all my items to include post & packing to any UK address. There is also a second price which is considerably less than the 'buy it now' price for buyers who would like to come and visit me at my gallery studio, pay and take away the item(s) there and then.

Thank you for supporting a Cornish artist.
