Meet Clorinda

Clorinda Fresquez-Tria is a mixed-media textile artist and instructor who transforms fabric, color, paint, and thread into art filled with story and meaning. Inspired by a lifelong love of art and nature, she brings traditional art techniques together with fabric collage and thread painting to create her distinctive style.

A former Special Education teacher with 15 years of experience, Clorinda now shares that same love of teaching through welcoming, step-by-step workshops that encourage others to explore, create, and discover their own artistic voice.
