Hi, I'm Tracey Diamond,
and I am a professional creative.
For most of my career, I have been known as a brand designer using my graphic design skills to develop visuals that would support small businesses building their identity to stand out above the others in their fields.
More recently, I have reignited my world as an artist, expresing myself through hand-illustrations, painting, surface and pattern design. Connecting the two areas of creativity has allowed me to expand my digital art portfolio as well.
I've been enjoying bringing both worlds together, and thrilled to have been selected as the featured artist for the 2022 Montclair Film Festival and illustrator of the photo anthropology book Hippie Chick by Jay Blakesberg.
A Little about Working Together...
the aesthetic of your messaging
In the commercial arts world, I work with businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals to promote their business, strengthen their brand and attract new clients. Each project is approached with two important aspects - maintaining cohesive design and working with what inspired the business to be. Your brand's imagery shapes your brand's identity so it's important that your visuals are consistant in a style that is both intentional and symbolic in nature from concept to design to print & web.
the inspiration that surrounds you
An artist at heart, I am continuously looking at the world in colors, shapes and textures. There is so much to explore when you love nature as much as I do - a neverending curiosity to play in every day. As an illustrator, painter, fiber artist, photographer, writer and sculptor, it all finds a way into my projects in art and graphic design, including murals and lettering. Color choice, placement and typography have a symbolic nature that will always shine through...even if you don't realize it!
After 30+ years of building a career as a graphic designer, and a lifetime of doodling on anything I could get my hands on, I have brought the two together and developed a new area of my business - pattern designer!
Join me on my journey as I create whimsical illustrations inspired by the magical moments nature shares. Please contact me to discuss collaborations and licensing. Together we can create that special artwork you are looking for, whether for your business, fashion line, branding needs, events, etc.
Sometimes a computer screen just isn't enough space to get the creativity going, and clicking a mouse is too restrictive. That's why I'm loving the times when I can step away again get to painting with murals & lettering projects!
Together we can make big things happen, in large and small spaces, to catch the eye and make moments memorable. If you are interested in a mural or lettering project for your own, contact me and let's discuss chat on how to boost your branding, space or special event.
the gifts you love to give (and get)
Art is "creating a visual representation of all the stuff going on inside of you." (Randall Pearson)
A fine artist at heart, I see the world in colors, shapes and textures. My hope as an artist is to inspire others to look at the world around us with a new set of eyes and see our everyday surroundings in ways that we never imagined before... and get lost in the magic for a little while. I hope you enjoy!
