Welcome to Copper Phoenix Studios
I'm Tracy, an artist, tarot creator, and lifelong student of mythology, folklore, magic, and sacred symbolism. I create artwork inspired by gods, goddesses, folk saints, spirits, legends, and mystical traditions from around the world.
My connection to these subjects goes far beyond artistic interest. I have been teaching psychic development and intuitive skills for over twenty years and have practiced ceremonial, Solomonic, and Thelemic magick for more than twenty-five years. I am a proud Sister of Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.), a role I have held since 2008.
Earlier in my path, I studied under Oberon and Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart and was honored to serve as May Queen of Annwfn in 2006. These experiences helped shape the way I approach mythology, symbolism, ritual, and spiritual practice, and they continue to influence my artwork today.
I am also the creator of The Thelemic Wisdom Tarot, a tarot deck inspired by the spiritual philosophy, symbolism, and magical traditions that have been central to my life for decades.
Many of my artworks begin with extensive research. I study mythology, historical sources, traditional symbolism, devotional practices, and cultural context before beginning a piece. My goal is not only to create beautiful artwork, but to capture the spirit, story, and essence of the figures I portray.
My artistic style draws inspiration from stained glass, mosaic art, illuminated manuscripts, religious iconography, fantasy illustration, and devotional art traditions from around the world. Every piece is created digitally and refined by hand through countless hours of painting, editing, and detail work.
When I'm not creating art, I'm usually spending time with my son, working on new projects, studying esoteric traditions, or being supervised by a collection of pets who firmly believe they run the studio.
Thank you for supporting independent artists. Every order, favorite, review, and kind message helps make it possible for me to continue creating new work and growing this small family-run business.
I hope you find a piece that speaks to you.
Love is the law, love under will.
Tracy
