I'm Tris, currently living and working as an artist in Seattle.

While I work most often with watercolor, I love to work in acrylic, gouache, ink, colored pencil, and oil pastel. I have extensive experience with graphite--I've done more portraits and sketches with a 2H pencil than I can count. I hope to continue to dabble in mediums like oil and mixed media. I strive to continually refine my skills, and to learn and incorporate new techniques.

I love to travel, having visited Thailand, Albania, Japan, Belize, and recently Hawaii! I also lived in Seoul, South Korea for 6 months in 2019. Each of my adventures inspires me to create. I view the world through an artistic lens, always on the lookout for something I might like to turn in to a beautiful piece of art. I work from both life (I love an urban sketch), and my own photos.

Want to view my artwork in person?

My 11 piece Hawaii series was on display at Yoroshiku in Seattle throughout March 2023. All of these original paintings (and one colored pencil drawing) are on sale, with prices including frames. Email me with inquiries, or to purchase a piece.

Want to purchase my artwork or commission me?

Commissions are open, and many of my pieces are for sale. For any inquiries, email me. You can also reach out to me through instagram.

I do not sell my artworks in digital form.
