T. Young is a Minnesota-based abstract painter working from her studio and gallery at the Northrup King Building in Northeast Minneapolis's celebrated arts district.
Born in St. Paul in 1958 and raised in nearby Cottage Grove, Tracy grew up immersed in art, photography, and music. After years of painting, she turned her attention to the business of art — developing and leading a program of lectures and workshops in the mid-to-late 1990s to help other artists build professional creative lives.
In 2004, she returned to painting full-time, trading folk art for abstraction and finding her voice in the interplay of color, line, and form. Her work evokes a sense of rhythm and motion — paintings that resonate beyond what the eye alone can take in.
