Dawn Trimble is an abstract expressionist watercolor painter in Atlanta. The artist originally came to Atlanta for a design job but found herself especially inspired by the city’s visual art culture, recognizable in its many murals.
She prefers the watercolor medium because, in her words, “the effect can be quiet and ethereal with soft layers of color in one moment, and in another moment they can be bold and intense with color, and I love that juxtaposition.”
Trimble’s works have been described as “calming” and “serene.” Coming from an interior design and architecture background, Trimble left the desk job lifestyle and recently began painting full-time. She still incorporates her design training and considers it a primary source of inspiration along with her religious faith.
