Lillie Fernback: A Lifetime of Artistic Expression

Trinity Art Gallery is honored to present the works of Lillie Fernback for the month of June, celebrating a remarkable artistic journey that spans more than five decades.

Lillie’s passion for art began early and was nurtured through formal studies at Millersville University, as well as mentorship with esteemed local artists Jay McVey, Dr. Sykes, and Eileen Navikas. Over the years, she has explored multiple mediums, including photography, watercolors, and oils, each serving as a means to capture fleeting moments in time.

Her work is distinguished by a masterful use of color, light, and composition, reflecting a deep appreciation for nature, from which she gains inspiration. Flowers, landscapes, and the ever-changing beauty of the world provide endless inspiration for her artistic creations.

At home, Lillie finds solace and creativity in her backyard studio, thoughtfully designed by her husband. Overlooking her garden and the serene Amish and Mennonite farmlands, the space provides an idyllic retreat where she continues to explore and express her vision.

With a lifetime dedicated to art, Lillie’s work invites viewers to pause, reflect, and appreciate the delicate interplay of light and color that defines her artistic legacy.
