Tracie Timmer
An enthusiast of all things whimsical and silly, Tracie Timmer has been drawing cute, fuzzy animals and ethereal mermaids since before she can remember. As a freelance illustrator from the Bay Area who specializes in children’s books, she uses her art as an outlet for all the zany ideas that bounce around in her head all day, bringing them to life on her canvas.
She is a graduate of the Academy of Art MFA program, and illustrates in addition to her full-time job at The Walt Disney Family Museum creating public programming about art, animation, and the history of Walt Disney. In the past, she has worked as a painting instructor for both children and adults. Along with her work in children’s books, she also has a great love for visual development and animation. When she’s not in her studio or at the museum, you can most often find her eating huge bowls of spaghetti and exploring the many nooks and crannies San Francisco has to offer. Look for her debut children’s book, The Mermaid and the Moon, written by Susan Pace-Koch and published by Get Out Books. Maggie Discovers the Rainbow is her second book.
