Studio
Elaine Trei's studio is located in the Coachella Valley Art Center, which provides space for working artists to paint, blow glass, glass fusion, Jewerly making,, and other types of art. There is a Gallery for showcasing various artists. The photos below provide a look into Trei's creative process, which were taken in the Big Bear Lake Studio. (And will be updated soon.from my new location.) My new studio is very similar to this one brimming with materials, books and completed works. Here is where Trei spends countless hours bringing her vision of nature, still life and the inner beauty of people to life—through paint.
Technique
This is what my work table looks like, and now that I am doing oils, acrylics and watercolor it appears like organized chaos. I am still organizing the system, especially the way I keep track of how I paint your painting, the colors and the techniques. I am doing more starts with pours, using grids, sedan wrap for texture and excitement. There is more layering as I work. Come see the studio by calling for an appointment or texting 909-519-9985 or e-mail: elaine@elainetrei.com.
