A delicate balance between control and chaos is how Tricia describes her work on the wheel. She has come to appreciate that the end result is rarely perfect, a trait that makes every hand-worked piece of art distinctive. Tricia’s work toes the line between functional and non-functional, she admits functional usually wins out. Connecting with a piece and making it a part of daily ritual is inspiration enough to create art.
Tricia graduated from Westby High School in 1994 and now works as an Art Teacher in the St. Paul schools. She still calls this area home, her parents still reside in the family home between Westby and Viroqua.
VIVA Gallery welcomes Tricia as our July guest artist and as a new member. She brings a fresh energy and innovative quality to her work. You have to come to the gallery to see it!
