Trina Teele is a Massachusetts-based artist whose work explores the subtle intersection between observation, emotion, and intuition. After years of training in realism, her artistic practice has evolved toward a more expressive and reflective approach—one that seeks not only to depict what is seen, but to capture what is felt.
Deeply inspired by nature and by formative experiences along the coasts of Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Long Island, Trina’s paintings evoke a sense of quiet presence, connection, and gentle wonder. Her work often reflects moments of stillness—where emotion, memory, and imagination converge—inviting the viewer to slow down and engage more deeply.
Trina holds a BFA in Painting and Graphic Design from the University of Massachusetts. Her work has been exhibited throughout New England, including at the Chelmsford Center for the Arts, Gallery by NOA at the Groton Inn, Newbury Court, Martha's Vineyard, Gallery Seven in Maynard, and the Whistler House Museum of Art. She has been featured in BostonVoyager and continues to share her evolving body of work through exhibitions, teaching, and community engagement. She is currently the artist-in-residence at the Chelmsford Center for the Arts.
