Local Artist Displays at City Hall

Reception at Victor City Art Gallery Celebrates Trish Pushaw

Victor, ID - July 15, 2024 - The community of Teton Valley is invited to join the Victor City Art Gallery in celebrating local artist Trish Pushaw with an exhibit and sale of her paintings. On Tuesday, August 6 from 4pm to 6pm, the City of Victor will host a reception and open house in the Victor City Gallery on the second floor of the US Bank building at 138 N Main Street, Victor.

View “Wild Embrace,” Trish’s insightful collection of wildlife paintings for sale now through September 30. The collection features an array of iconic animals from the area. In response to the untamed creatures which cohabit this valley alongside us, Trish embraces the capricious nature of watercolor. Often beginning with an uncontrolled splash of paint, skillful brushstrokes transform the splattered surfaces into faces of familiar wild fauna. 

Peering from the walls are a menagerie of wild things which stand witness to the “soul nourishing” landscape of Teton Valley. Foxes and larks, magpies and wildflowers take form amidst sprays of color. The paintings capture the diverse moods of our surrounding scenery. Trish believes we must learn from these animals by embracing our wild heritage rather than trying to tame it. 

Trish’s artistic style developed from experiences in nature around the globe. Beginning in East Africa and continuing in Ireland, her parents taught her to appreciate the outdoors and to respond to it with art. Her passion for wildlife art prompts her to continue that tradition now that Teton Valley is her home.

The Reception and Sale provides an excellent opportunity for the public to meet the Patricia. Originals and prints are available for purchase. All community members, art collectors, and art enthusiasts are encouraged to gather for refreshments while supporting local art.
