About Trista
 

Trista’s expressive style infuses storytelling from a female perspective and as a mother.  Her raw emotion can be seen through the rough applications of charcoal, oil stick and paint scraped on the canvas, loose brush strokes, and unapologetic messages.  

Trista is a visual artist who lives and works in Minneapolis, MN. She has been be working as an artist since 2009. Prior to focusing on painting, she was as an commercial interior designer, specializing in hospitality and retail projects nationally and internationally.
