Meet Tricia
Tricia Reust is a visual artist working in most media, and has lived with her family on the Redcliffe Peninsula for the past 30 years.
Tricia is a Master Pastellist with the Pastel Society of Australia, a member of several societies and her awards cover many themes and media. She is a much-requested workshop presenter and has taught throughout Australia and overseas.
She works constantly at her art and her process increasingly involves presenting layers of story in her images.
Tricia won the National Mortimore Prize in 2012; has been a finalist ten times in the Bald Archy; recorded a television episode with Colour in Your Life; and has been published in the Australian Artist and all four “Incite – The Best of International Mixed Media” publications. She has written “Landscape as Story” and her three instructional DVD’s are very popular.
