Although most of her painting is done in her own studio using photographs as reference, she also produces art on location–painting en Plein Air.  Trish’s subject matter varies and includes landscapes, farm animals, portraits, old homesteads and buildings. She is an award winning artist and exhibits in group, solo and juried shows throughout Wisconsin.

This year Trish is bringing selected paintings from her studio to the Duren Farm – Conservation & Art Stop for exhibit and sale. Greetings cards and other items will also be offered. She also does commissions and is available to discuss your particular vision for a painting.

A long time ‘amateur’ harmonica player, Trish will occasionally accompany her husband Doug in playing music throughout the day.
