A Place of Peace Perched between earth and water, the figure rests in a moment of suspended stillness—neither fully grounded nor adrift. Her body, painted in molten tones of fire and gold, becomes both subject and landscape; a living embodiment of transformation. Draped fabrics in amber, ochre and deep chocolate fall around her like remnants of a past self, suggesting both protection and release.

The tree—ancient, weathered, unwavering—anchors her. It holds her as she leans back in quiet surrender, one arm extended upward in a gesture that feels both reaching and remembering. Beneath her, the water lies calm and expansive, reflecting a world softened by distance and introspection.

This work speaks to the space between intensity and peace—the moment after the storm, where the body still carries heat but the mind begins to settle. It is about returning to self. About holding power without needing to perform it. About finding stillness not by escaping life, but by fully inhabiting it.

Through art, we are creating awareness, compassion, and meaningful change.

About Tracie Eaton
Tracie Eaton is not just creating art — she is leading a movement for cultural change and storytelling.

An internationally recognised, multi-award-winning contemporary artist, Tracie is known for her richly textured, emotionally driven works that explore the psychology of colour. Based on the Gold Coast, Queensland, her bold acrylic paintings invite viewers to experience art on a deeply human level — not just visually, but emotionally.

Living with epilepsy herself, Tracie understands the unseen challenges, resilience, and strength required to navigate life with a neurological condition. Through her work, she transforms emotion into colour, texture, and form — creating paintings that become vessels for storytelling, healing, and connection.

Works such as Pieces embody these emotional journeys, reflecting themes of resilience, courage, hope, and the power of rebuilding oneself through adversity.

Through Art for Rescue, Tracie is calling ‘time’.

“Time for us to come together.
Time to create greater understanding, compassion, and support for those living with epilepsy and neurological conditions.
Time to ensure that no one feels unseen, unheard, or alone in their journey.”
