Ash Forrest lives and works as a freelance artist in the St Louis area. She received a BFA from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in printmaking. Her large abstract paintings combine uncontrolled washes of pigment and splatter with conscious application of thicker layers. Her work is largely informed by landscapes and maps with vivid color palettes inspired by nostalgia and memories. With over 10 years experience in event, portrait and commercial photography, Ash has the unique ability to tell your story in an authentic and compelling way.
