Trish Brooks


Growing up as a young girl in the Midwest suburbs, Trish always enjoyed the excitement of family trips to the lake or a vacation at the ocean. After moving to Arizona in the early 70's, the opportunity to escape the heat became an annual summer tradition.
It had been over 20 years since Trish had painted, when in 2005 her family encouraged her to paint a few watercolor cards to sell at a local craft sale. Trish was originally inspired by the beauty of the ocean and has since found many other inspirations.
