Creating realistic paintings through transparent watercolor is how Trish translates the light captured from images from her own photos. “Light is the only reason to paint”, says Trish. Her work is completely transparent with darks achieved by layering multiple washes . She considers herself a watercolor purist and does not use any form of masking or masking fluid to save the whites in her paintings, but instead uses negative painting skills as she saves the white of the paper to depict white in her paintings. Inspiration strikes often and Trish paints a multitude of subjects including: florals, landscapes, skyscapes, seascapes, figures and portraits. Her work is ever-evolving as she finds interest in new subjects and tries out new techniques.
