As early as age two, my mother would often find me scribbling with anything I could find. From once the use of her favorite red lipstick to crayons, paints, and more. She never scolded me for using her lipstick, only simply replaced it with another lovely red crayon and countless more. Hello, my name is Trinda Latherow and I am an artist in the greater Tampa Bay area of Florida. From once finger-painting and spirit drawing to fine art, the creative soul continues to express itself in new and wondrous ways. Painting portraits, animals, and nature, even reproducing the renaissance works of such masters as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Raphael, and Leonardo da Vinci, who also learned by art reproduction. Creating all that is simply meant to comfort, uplift, or inspire!
