CV & EXHIBITIONS

Trish Mitchell is a British–South African contemporary realist oil painter based in the Cotswolds, UK. She established her fine art practice in Cape Town, where her work was represented, exhibited and collected, before relocating to the United Kingdom at the end of 2023.

Her current UK chapter builds on that established South African practice while developing new bodies of work shaped by the light, rhythm and landscape of the English countryside. Trish is now developing appropriate UK representation, gallery relationships, publishing opportunities and selected commercial partnerships.
