Hi! I’m Wendy Trattner!
I'm a contemporary abstract artist based in Scottsdale, Arizona.
My bold abstract paintings are designed to elevate a space while inviting deeper reflection—each piece layered with texture, emotion, and hidden messages.
As a giggly girl, most people don’t expect that I was once a mechanical engineer who graduated from MIT. And they’re even more surprised that I left it all to become a self-taught artist. But there’s more to my story. It all started when tragedy struck at age 7, turning my world upside down.

Wendy is amazing!!
“Super responsive and collaborative as I shared my ideas of what I wanted for my room art. It’s now a subject of conversation when it appears in my home video calls and gives my room all the good vibes!”

It’s always the first thing people notice in the room!
“I have one of Wendy's gorgeous paintings in my room and it changes the whole space! I saw it at one of Wendy's art shows and immediately loved it. It’s full of color and movement and thoughtfulness, it reminds me of joy!”

The painting far exceeded my expectations
“I absolutely loved working with Wendy. I reached out to her about designing a piece relating to my favorite song that I had spent years figuring out the right person to do it. The painting far exceeded my expectations and is my favorite artwork I have. The amount of time Wendy spent asking questions, working with us, and trying to understand why the song inspired us really came through in the final painting”

She translated my thoughts into a work that I absolutely love
"I worked with Wendy to create a custom piece that would quietly capture themes of movement, nature and the emptiness of space. She shared drafts, new ideas and ended up translated my vague thoughts into a work that I absolutely love.. it’s something I look at every single day with intrigue and wonder

Art at the edge of feeling and physics
As a former engineer, I often embed symbols, equations, or fragments of thought within the work—details that make each painting personal, one-of-a-kind, and worth a second look. Beneath the surface, my work explores the big questions: how to live a life with meaning and intention.
