Artist Comments
An inviting still life of fresh cut flowers in a vase, a bottle of wine and a book overlooking a sunset along the coast. Part of a series of paintings by artist Tricia May featuring a window with a romantic view. "The indoor-outdoor composition adds another dimension," says Tricia. "'Room with a View' makes me want to cozy up with a good book and a glass of wine."

About the Artist
Drawing her inspiration from the outdoors, Tricia May describes her paintings as “impressionistic with a contemporary flair.” Her early work focused on the figure, but after moving to Idaho in 1992, she became fascinated with capturing the landscape. She is a founding member of the Plein Air Painters of Idaho, and enjoys painting on location, in the sunshine, whenever possible. Tricia’s love of being outside has rendered her quite prolific–her current “Tree” series numbers more than 400 paintings and counting. “I plan my paintings ahead using sketches, a value pattern, and color choices,” says the artist. “Then I allow intuition and spontaneity to take over, enjoying the process.”
