About the Item

For artist Trish Nickell, life took a dramatic turn when she and her husband moved to Paris in 1996. Their planned year in France extended to a stay of 12 years. When they returned in 2008, they settled in Portland, Oregon, influencing Nickell to include views of the Northwest coast along with the French landscapes already inspiring her. She was born in Dallas, and grew up in the Park Cities, graduating from Highland Park High School in 1965. In 1968, Nickell earned a BA from the University of North Texas followed by an MA in 1986 and an MFA from The University of Dallas in 1988. Independent study with artist John Evans was crucial to her development. Of her most recent work, Trish Nickell says, “My new paintings begin in the sensation described by Pierre Bonnard, ‘of being overwhelmed by the beauty of Nature.’ The views I choose to depict are derived from moments when Nature presents itself to me, completely unsolicited, in a certain light and with a certain combination of exploding colors. These views have a sense of solitude that liberates the imagination and invites meditation; I take Nature’s beauty and expansiveness into myself and allow it to change and transform my work.”
