Too Hot To Cook Painting

Tracey Paterson is a British–Australian artist based in London. Originally from Sydney, she has also lived in Canada and New Zealand, and this movement between cultures deeply shapes her work. Her paintings explore the contrasts, translations, and small, often overlooked details that define life across different places. Working with a vivid, expressive palette, Tracey uses bold colour and texture to evoke the energy, memories, and emotional resonance of the subjects she paints. Her intuitive approach allows her to tell stories that sit between observation and feeling, where colour becomes a language for joy, curiosity, and connection.
