Trish McKinney
Trish McKinney is an
award winning artist whose work is featured in
private collections all over the United States
and Europe. She is an exhibiting member of the
National Watercolor Society, the International
Society of Experimental Artists, the Western
Ohio Watercolor Society, and the Ohio Watercolor
Society.
Trish attended Louisiana Tech University, where she majored in Art Education and Graphic Design. She then went on to become a Graphic Illustrator for the United States Army, proudly serving her country for eight years. Trish has been teaching watercolors since 1995 and painting professionally since 1989. Her mission is to give more than what she has been given through teaching. She believes it is only through giving her passion and talent to others that she will discover her true potential as an artist. Trish describes herself as a conduit of color and her style is graphic,, bold, and colorful. Sensual shapes, emotional color, and the relationships of the human spirit, is what intrigues this artist the most. Her personality is best suited to the spontaneity and vibrancy of aqueous media. Her mixed media pieces speak of spontaneity and sheer joy. Her transparent watercolors speak of stories that must be told. Emulating the Creator is what connects them. A former resident of Charleston, South Carolina, the artist now lives in Ohio with her family. Part of her spirit is still in the South Carolina Low country, which still inspires many of her paintings. "I shut my eyes in order to see" is one of her favorite quotes because it reminds her of how it all started for her...imagination.
