About the author
Tracey Gibbs
8 books1 followerTracey Gibbs is a contemporary printmaker from Perth, Western Australia. With roots in wildflower country in the south west of Western Australia her fascination with botanicals is long-standing. Raised in a resourceful and creative family, her interest in art specifically took hold in high school, especially when she was first exposed to both Fauvism and especially Pop Art. Vivid colour remains an obsession and features prominently in her work. After high school she studied a short art course at TAFE and then went on to complete a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design at Curtin University.
Tracey started her design career as a book designer and excelled in the field for over a decade. She relished the versatility of book design, and within a few years of beginning her graphic design career, Tracey started out on her own; freelancing within the publishing field. She loved the challenge of running her own business and grew a solid client base. She also had the opportunity to illustrate a few children’s books which had been a long-time goal of hers.
In 2018 Tracey took the leap into a long-held dream of hers; producing self-driven art. Printmaking, specifically screen printing has been a love of Tracey's from the first time she was exposed to it in high school. Tracey’s experience in design and love of nature continues to influence her creative direction and she is excited to explore detail and joy in all its forms.

Let's Count Wildflowers By Tracey Gibbs. 🌼
This sweet little informative board book teaches little ones to count from one to ten whilst learning all about the beautiful Australian wildflowers. I found this board book to be very authentic and descriptive and the illustrations just vibrant and exquisite.
