Hello my name is Tracy B. Reynolds and I am an artist, writer, teacher and minister of the gospel. I grateful that God has given me a unique mix of gifts and talents to fulfill His purposes but most of all that I am, by the grace of God a survivor and an overcomer. I was born in Long Island, NY, raised in a small town in West Virginia. I received a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from West Virginia University and then relocated to Charlotte, NC. I’ve worked as a muralist, portrait artist, and art teacher. I founded Blessed Heart Art, L.L.C. an art business that specializes in Christian themed art. I love teaching art to young children and adults but also have a passion for literacy. I am also a children’s book author and illustrator and in 2020 published my first book, Pretty Like Me! Everything that I have accomplished has been by God’s grace and mercy. I am truly a poor girl from West Virginia and should not be where I am today. Not saying that I have done a lot but from where I have come from it is indeed, a miracle. My favorite scripture is Romans 8:28, “That God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”
