About Patrick


My interest is in attaining a balance between an illusion and the surface of the work that creates a tension. While I strive to present images that are realistic in that they should have the weight and presence of what is observed in life, they should often be elusive in detail and narrative.

I like your work. They're like what you see when looking back at a memory or trying to remember your dreams. Or the world of someone nearsighted.

What I see: someone working from photographs and not very well. Why the huge black blob in the bottom left? It's distracting and serves no purpose. Cut the noise. It's just a photo, a document to work from, nothing more.

Flesh tones: Mauve. Mauve. Mauve. I see someone that needs to work on flesh tone.

subject matter: unobtrusive camera shot=boring=safe for introverted artist.

The colors are great, I like it, but their are other races in the world. Like people of color maybe.

Touching and frightening. The paintings display the chaos, almost meaningless that sometimes characterize daily life, especially in crowds.

I'm not fond of this style. Parts are too much of a blur to me. But I do like the colors.
