Trisha Adams has been named Newnan-Coweta Art Association’s Artist of the Month for June 2008.

Adams has sought out classes and workshops since picking up her first paintbrush seven years ago. Adams believes firmly in challenging herself as an artist and constantly growing her skills. She paints with watercolors and acrylics and also enjoys graphic and website design. You can find her work in homes and businesses across the United States. She also has two paintings in the annual NCAA member Juried Art Exhibit, which will be on display at the Centre for Performing and Visual Arts off Lower Fayetteville road. The opening reception for this event is June 18, from 6–8 p.m.

At the urging of her friends, Adams has also begun to teach. She currently instructs children and adults out of her home in watercolor and teaches occasional floor cloth workshops at local venues.

Adams is the youngest of three siblings and was born and raised in Oregon. She and her husband moved to Georgia in 2001 and are very happy to call Newnan home. Adams is a stay-at-home wife and mother to three girls ages 8, 5 and 3. She says she finds endless inspiration through the eyes of her children.

Adams is a member and officer of the Newnan-Coweta Art Association. NCAA meets the third Thursday of each month – from September through May – at the Harriet Alexander Art Center on Hospital Road at 7 p.m. Visitors and new members are welcome. An art demonstration is presented each month.
