Painting Daisies Photography 

 

My name is Tracey Lee Michaelson. I’m a Rhode Island Photographer with a special connection to Block Island.  My work captures the essence of Summer in New England through Landscape and Fine Art Photography.  I’m most inspired when spending time on the coast of Southern RI or on Block Island where I can wander and capture the natural beauty of the island.  I use my camera to document the world with a focus on the magic I find in daily life. My pictures tell my stories.

I offer these images in fine art prints and photo greeting cards. My work is available through my website, local shops in South County and artisan shows throughout RI, MA and CT.  I am also a member of the Block Island Arts and Artisan Festival which takes place Victory weekend in August at the Harbor Church a short walk from the ferry.
