« The practice of giving up on perfection and accepting the beauty of the unexpected when I paint has helped me do the same in my everyday life. »
Trixie Pitts is an abstract painter whose work unfolds intuitively through gesture, layering, and restraint. Her paintings emerge from lived experience and a process that values presence over planning, allowing color and movement to guide the image as it develops.
Working primarily in oil and often at a large scale, she begins with color rather than form, allowing gesture and sensation to lead.
The process is physical and immersive. Rather than correcting or forcing resolution, she trusts the internal logic that develops within the painting itself.
Her recent series, Open, Not Broken, explores moments of suspension, endurance, and return. These works hold vulnerability without collapse and openness without fracture, creating spaces where something quiet but enduring can remain.
