Phil Frisk has a passion for art, all kinds of art.  At a very early age he exhibited an interest in drawing and painting.  He was given art lessons and art supplies to encourage this interest.  He has explored the art mediums of oil, acrylic, pastel, batik, sculpture, photography and computer graphics but watercolor remains his favorite.  Watercolor offers the greatest versatility in expressing mood and motion in his paintings.  He has studied under nationally acclaimed watercolorists and continues his education in this most challenging medium.

Phil’s varied background gives him a vast variety of interests and subjects to paint.  He employs a bold, direct approach with translucent pigments to bring out the natural glow of the medium.  He enjoys utilizing many special techniques of watercolor painting such as wet into wet, pouring, salt and other effects to enhance his paintings.  Landscapes and nature settings are frequent subject matter for his paintings.  His work has been included in collections across the country and around the world.

Phil and his wife, artist Judy Bert Frisk, produce and market their paintings as well as a line of limited edition prints and greeting cards.  They have presented the prints in a variety of sizes and in some innovative approaches.  Phil does all the matting, framing, shrink-wrapping, photographing and printing to market their finished products.
