Tracy has been making handbound books off and on since 1990, but didn’t really explore the craft until 2018. In that, she has taken many classes in book arts in New England, New York, and Virginia. She also went down the book arts rabbit hole, learning papermaking and paper marbling. Marbling set her heart on fire and she has been learning from the masters at Chena River Marblers in Massachusetts. By day, Tracy is a reading intervention and ESL teacher, so she appreciates reading and writing using paper, not computers.
