The artist
Torrea paints by hand in watercolor and ink on Arches paper, from her loft studio in the southern Pennsylvania countryside. Many of her favorite places are by the sea, and the work follows: whales and water, harbors, and the small, worth-remembering corners of the places she loves.
Every painting shown here is the original: one sheet, painted once. Prints of each piece are on their way.
Opening soon
Each of these paintings will be offered as a print. The shop isn't open yet. Leave your email there and you'll be the first to know when it is.
