Biography

She has further refined her skills by attending many workshops and demonstrations by well-known Australian Artists who have given her guidance and inspiration.

She also exhibits at The Royal Easter Show, Art of Sydney and many smaller exhibitions and has won several awards including; First, Highly Commended, Commended and Finalist. Trish has been very successful at selling her work at various exhibitions and through OzArt Finder.
