“Down to the Shore” | Oil on Canvas · 37” x 38” (framed)

Trish Hurley received her BFA in Painting from Swain School of Design and her MFA in Painting from the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth. As a child, crayons were her love. Now as an adult, each color evokes an emotion she portrays in her work.

The evolution of her work comes from a fascination with the outdoors, whether it’s walking down a wooded path, a city street, or sitting along a river. These visual images are quickly captured in palette knife studies. Once in her studio, larger, generally more abstract paintings are born, looser and freeing.

Hurley lives and works in Newport, Rhode Island. She is represented in the Chicagoland area by the Art Post Gallery in Northbrook. To learn more, visit artpostgallery.com or call 847-272-7659.
