This Treby is different from much of her body of work yet, as always, she seems to leave us guessing.  It features two women in the center in classic greek dress, but with deep bluesm purples, and aquas.  This TREBY has bright colors. The gold, much of which is hand embellished, glitters in light!! This beautiful piece is a  LARGE HAND EMBLELLISHED canvas,  It is HAND SIGNED AND NUMBERED 64 of only 75 (making this a very, very small edition), by Treby in silver. The print is approx. 40"x 29.5". LARGE--HAND EMBELLISHED!!Please not for purposes of disclosure:  There is a small tear at the edge of the margin.  It will not effect this piece at all once it is stretched as it normally would be simply part of the canvas stapled to the back of the stretchers.About the artist, in her own words: "Whilst at the Slade School I started lecturing in printmaking specializing in mezzotint. Upon leaving college I lived in a studio apartment in Wapping, East London and I suppose you could say that I did the bohemian artist thing. I had already built up a successful relationship with a gallery called the Curwen Gallery who gave me my first one-women exhibition in the 80s. I also won a few awards 'The Lloyds Young Printmaker of the Year' and the 'Elizabeth Greenshield award' which allowed me to paint for a year. I was still only interested in painting full-time, I knew that I did not want to lecture full-time or do any other job for that matter painting was my passion and still is! Through going to the Slade School you brush past the great and the good Ewan Uglio, Lucien Freud, Sir William Coldstream, Francis Bacon to name but a few. And as time goes on I can see how these and many others have influenced my work, without me even realising. I am like a sponge absorbing life and these influences reappear years later and then it all makes sense. I never know where my ideas come from and I have no plans; I just get rushes of ideas and just think I have to work on them immediately to achieve the best results, My best work is done in a sort of stream of consciousness. Sometimes I go into my studio, which is my space, and I love it. I lose whole days as if I have been anaesthetised. Its like drowning in a sea of nothingness a sort of meditative state. Its on those days that I do my very best work. My main aim is that my work should always be like a river, always changing and eventually turning into an estuary and then becoming the sea. I cant wait to get to the sea! My work is essentially figurative; I try to create an intimate mood using colour and the figure or figures. I use models a lot of the time, and sometimes I see different things in the models; perhaps certain vulnerabilities or strengths that others dont see. I paint a lot of nudes as I feel that the body holds experiences, which even if the figure has its back to you it tells you its own story at that particular moment in time. We all pick up on that story on a subconscious level. So its like reading a novel when looking into a painting. You see the painting and snatches of the artist all at once. Its like laying yourself open without saying a word. It all holds memory which creates atmosphere which speaks to everyone who looks at that painting. I am probably more known for my drawing as I love form and tend to, even when painting, visualise the other side of the subject. Then its as if the figures are just there waiting to be painted I just find it really exciting!"
