Trijsten Leach grew up in California’s Santa Cruz mountains and gained an early love of the mountains, the forests and the oceans. As a teen surfing, hiking, biking and other outdoor activities had a big impact on him and would later influence his decision to become a landscape painter.
Plein air painting has been a crucial part to his growth and learning as he seeks to learn and improve his artistic skills and storytelling abilities. Through a series of fortunate events he was able to study under the renowned California Landscape Artist John Burton. In his own words, “That experience did more for my art education than any other instruction and learning I had done previously. It was a huge blessing and really pointed me in the right direction as an artist.”
