Each art piece is professionally matted in soft white, the painting size is approximately 9 x 9 with a finished overall size of 15 x 15. Because the painting is on paper, this piece requires framing. Only high quality paint is used.

6) Thank you to Trent’s Fans

Thank you for your interest in Trent’s artwork and his shows.

7) A Personal Note: The arts: painting, drawing, dancing, playing an instrument, etc. has tremendous impact on fulfilling the lives of people with ASD. I see it personally with Trent and in my work with families and their sons and daughters.

These quotes have special meaning in understanding a little more about artists who have autism.

“If I could say it in words there would be no reason to paint.”
Edward Hopper

“Color is one of the great things in the world that makes life worth living to me and as I have come to think of painting it is my effort to create an equivalent with paint color for the world – life as I see it.” Georgia O’Keefe

“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”
Edgar Degas
