Patricia, an oil and pastel painter since 2009, works out of her Eden, PA home studio in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. In the early days of the pandemic, she stumbled upon cold wax oil painting medium. Soon after, Patricia discovered the Cold Wax Academy which is run by award winning cold wax abstract artists, Rebecca Crowell and Jerry McLaughlin. Patricia joined the academy October 2021 and continues her deep dive study of this oil painting medium. Patricia’s non-objective abstract work, as with her still life and birds, is inspired by nature. This is depicted through her color palette. Patricia’s abstract work is emotional, intuitive, serene, and energetic. She enjoys adding the occasional collage elements, and the use of additive and deductive techniques. Cold wax with oils gives the artist the opportunity to create many layers, sometimes up to 20 or more in a painting. Patricia presses textures into the layers with her favorite tools, and scrapes away parts of the layers to reveal what is underneath. These and other techniques keeps Patricia’s artwork fresh, never stale or predictable.
Patricia’s wish for her nature inspired art is to give the viewer pause, a moment of quiet reflection, to offer a moment of peace, and perhaps evoke a memory of a happy time or place.
