| Working in a style all her own Patti's
paintings reflect a strong sense of color and design.
Painting outdoors, along our coastline, in a garden,
or on her many travels, she captures and records an
ordinary moment in time and the ever changing quality
of light.
She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from
U.S.C., with a major in design. She has studied with
Roger Armstrong, Charles Reid, Robert E. Wood, Charles
Sovek, Kenn Backhaus, Morgan Samuel Price and attended
the Lucca Art Institute in Italy.
Her work is in numerous private collections here
and abroad. She is a member of California Art Club,
National Water Color Society, Oil Painters of America,
Laguna Plein Air Painters Association and Southern
California Plein Air Painters Association. She is
currently showing at Laguna North Gallery, 376 North
Coast Highway, Laguna Beach and Sparrow Fine Art,
Solana Beach.
