About Tracy Gulovsen & Renate Potter
Educator and Learner for Life
Education and understanding have been the driving forces throughout my career. Whether helping a child learn to communicate, teaching older adults the skills to earn a GED or providing a pathway for an individual with a hearing loss to stay connected and vital, I've been blessed with the opportunities to be a part of making a difference in the lives of others.
Through writing/publishing I've been given another channel to demonstrate how compassion and patience can be another path for learning and acceptance.
My name is Renate Potter and I'm an illustrator from the Netherlands.
I've had a lot of different jobs before I decided to chase my dream and become an illustrator. Most of those jobs were involved in education. I'm a sucker for Ancient History and in my childhood, I always wanted to be an archaeologist, but I wasn't that good in science.
I love to create images that are appealing to both grown-ups and children. Images that can put a smile on your face and let your imagination kick in. Pictures that can translate feelings, emotions and memories. My heart is with the child in every one of us and I hope to do it justice.
I love what I do! Please contact me if you're interested in engaging me for a project or have any questions.
