Trixie Pitts Contemporary Art

I’m Trixie Pitts, a Canadian American artist who’s been painting most of her life. Although I started out painting realist portraits, I now specialize in contemporary abstract art, mainly large oil paintings.  Hard to categorize, my style evolves largely from Abstract Expressionism, and sometimes Minimalism. My large canvases focus on color and dynamic, gestural brushwork. A lifelong inward and emotional healing journey hopefully adds a unique original element and edge to paintings. It certainly seems to be leading me recently on a more Expressionist path. Travel and a life lived abroad is another huge influence on my work.

Nashville is home base now after living and painting for many years in Hong Kong and New York City, as well as London, Toronto and Atlanta. I have been fortunate to have exhibited widely and sell to my paintings worldwide.
