About Trish
Trish attended a short course at both Stephen Garrett's architectural drawing school and The Inchbald School of Design London in the 1970's, after which she married and went to live abroad. She is now fortunate to live in an area of Devon surrounded by sea, river and countryside! With its ever-changing landscape, the subject matter consistently inspires. Her paintings, which tend to evolve and emerge from the canvass in a semi abstracted way are born about by her feelings and reaction to a place and are therefore not representational. She paints in Oils and Acrylics but can't help scribbling over the work with charcoal to finish!
'I attend Life Drawing workshops locally and am a member of our local art club.
I try to go to a course a year with Robin Child who is the most inspirational of teachers. I find the work of such artists as Joan Eardley, Donald Hamilton Fraser, Bruce Onobrakpeya, Peter Lanyon and Richard Diebenkorn of particular interest. I also spend happy hours leafing through old exhibition catalogues and books!'
