Fibonacci Portrait Inspires Fibonacci Traders
Day traders and technicians inspired by Fibonacci arcs, retracements, fans and time projections can now own an original oil painting of the legendary mathematician painted by contemporary artist, Tracy Mac. And, what’s truly unique about the portrait is that it was painted by the numbers!
No, the portrait wasn’t created from a paint by numbers kit, but is an original ink and acrylic on canvas painted by Mac who is an established American artist. The artist lives and paints near New York city and is somewhat of a tech-head himself. As a starting artist he invented mathematical paint brushes, a custom graphics program that he uses along with his artistic instincts to create amazingly detailed and stylized artwork.
Mac’s technique and artistic talent result in a strong portfolio of intelligent looking art that is balanced, colorful and peppered with interesting patterns and designs.
Mac literally paints by numbers using mathematical formulas that can be applied to any medium. In other words, there is no limit to variations on the themes created for each painting based on how the digital file is printed. Sizes, shapes and colors can be altered either intentionally or organically when the artist uses new or different reproduction technologies and methods.
The artist who has exhibited his work in juried shows throughout the U.S. and Europe is represented by a number of galleries but also sells his work independently in his online art gallery at DiscoveredArtists.com. He recently posted the Fibonacci portrait to his gallery along with paintings of Einstein and Euclid as part of his series of Golden Portrait paintings.
Italian mathematician Leonardo Pisano who actually wasn’t called Fibonacci until after his death, uncovered the unique mathematical sequence of numbers known as Fibonacci numbers in the early 1200’s. Late in the 20th century Fibonacci Trading and Fibonacci Analysis were developed as methods for projecting future market trends. Fibonacci arcs, fans and retracements are most commonly used today by technical traders to predict and understand an individual stock’s behavior and are widely used by technicians for market timing projections.
Mac who has a liberal arts education is blessed with a natural acumen for highly complex mathematics, computer science, programming, and, of course, art. His works range from abstract and figuratives to florals, portraits and cityscapes.
The contemporary portrait of the man behind Fibonacci retracement and time projections could become a treasured addition to a technical trader’s art collection. The original painting measures 30″ x 48″ and can be purchased online directly from the artist at www.discoveredartists.com/gallery/TracyMac.
Original artwork in Mac’s online gallery is priced from $500 to $1900. All works are singular unless otherwise noted. The artist signs his work on the reverse side and includes a certificate of authenticity. Mac accepts commissions and is interested in exploring subjects brought to him by art patrons and by other artists. You can see more of his work in his gallery on http://www.discoveredartists.com/.
