Artist Info

Untitled design (58)
Port Townsend,
 WA

She resided amidst the evergreens of northern Washington with her husband and sizable menagerie of semi-domesticated pets.

Sadly, Susan passed away November, 2023.

Her beautiful paintings are still for sale and will be treasured by those that add them to their collection.

Susan Trisko was born and grew up in rural Oregon.  Her attention and incipient talent were first kindled as a young girl when, upon acquiring her first paint set, she set to rendering the animals and natural life around her.  Her subjects of interest have never changed.  Susan has studied under a myriad of teachers, including Gary Pruner and Abraham Nussbaum.  style and medium has ranged over the years from realism to photo realism to realist impressionism; primarily oil, pencil and pastel.

Susan moved to Port Townsend from California in 2003, began making art, drawing wildlife, as a child,

” I love painting fur. I love painting feathers. I love exploring each subject as I paint it, discovering something new with each one,” she said in the release.

As a child, drawing chipmunks or deer or birds around her house “was a way to make them mine, to hold them still,” she said.

She feels that art is a way to share discoveries with others.

“It is to say, ‘Isn’t this beautiful or interesting or magnificent in some way?’”

Her first art lessons were in her 20s with Sacramento artist Carole McNair. Later she studied with Abraham Nussbaum, “the kindest, wisest man I ever met, and a published poet,” and then with Gary Pruner.

“I painted absolutely every night for about 20 years,”Trisko said. “It was obsessive.”

Her work was in three California galleries: The Treasure Trove in Roseville, Delphina’s in Sacramento and an Artists’ Coop in Sacramento.

Rest in peace, Susan.
