River of Grass Painting

Trish Weeks is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati College of Design, Art, Architecture and Planning with a BS in Design. Trish has received awards in numerous juried shows on a regional and national level and has been represented by galleries in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, South Carolina, Michigan and New Mexico. Her work is included in private and corporate collections throughout the world. Trish was a featured artist at the Taft Museum, the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Carnegie Art Center and The Lloyd Library and Museum. Trish draws inspiration from the organic landscapes in the Midwest and the Carolinas. She also adds a global perspective by layering memories from travels to paint in Europe, India, China, Japan and Nepal where she paints out in the environments she is experiencing. Trish’s signature works portray expressionist views of nature that seem to breathe and vibrate with amazing energy. These are created by combining simple compositions and complex layers of color using a palette knife to intensify the clarity and impact of the colors. Those who experience her work routinely comment on how good it makes them feel, and describe it as a tactile experience or “a dance with color”.
