Traci Bautista
Traci Bautista is a mixed media artist, designer, author, teacher and paint maker. In 2001, she left a successful career in Silicon Valley to pursue her passion for art and launched treiC designs.
Her bold colorful work merges freestyle mark making, scribbled graffiti, and abstract florals. She draws inspiration from florals, typography + letterforms, her artful garden, and urban landscapes. You can find hints of wanderlust sprinkled throughout her colorful handmade art journals and sketchbooks where she records and captures her explorations. Always pushing the boundaries, she experiments with using handmade paint brushes and found tools for printmaking.
For the past seventeen years, her artwork has led her on a worldwide tour teaching mixed media workshops and speaking about creative business. She has guided tens of thousands of artists in person and online to PLAY and paint with freedom. Her workshops encourage students to “see things differently,” to let go and trust themselves as they face the blank canvas. She also spent five years as a K-12 art educator, developing curriculum and after-school programs.
