My name is Trisha Haaz. I am happily married with a 2 1/2 year old girl, who shares my joy in painting.
I have been painting for over 20 years. Until recently, I have never attended any art classes.
I love using vibrant colors. My artwork stems from inspirations that I form in my mind. An inspiration can come from another art piece, music, nature, people, animals, and emotions that stir with-in me. These tools help me to create my artwork.
I find beauty in many things. I pay attention to detail in everything I see. I believe detail is important to have so someone can understand what I am trying to say.
Fantasy sweeps me away. I love to incorporate some form of fantasy in my artwork. I love the ocean, castles, mermaids, and fairies. Anything mystical.
Around 8 years ago, I owned a small doggy day care. I began to paint animal portraits, and made a small business out of it.
My life has always been surrounded by art. A few years ago, my mother and I manufactured a purse line. These purses were replicas of 1940 purses made of Lucite. These purses were created by images that I drew up. In high school, I designed jeans with my artwork. My Godmother assisted me, and has been a big support system for me and my artwork since I was a child.
I am currently painting with oils. Oil painting has opened up a new world for me. Oil painting has a life of it's own and I love what I can create with it.
All of my pieces tell a story. So much of my heart and myself goes into my work.
