             About Me
     Living a Colorful Life

IMG_4828_edited.jpg

Somebody once told me, “Your hands are never still.” It’s true.  I began painting at seven when my mother enrolled me in classes at the Toledo Museum of Art. At 12 I studied with Dan Passino who introduced me to pastel and later oil painting.  It was a class of 6 people, 5 over 50 and one curious 12 year old that loved learning. I continued my study of Painting and Art History at Bowling Green State University, graduating Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.

​

I have had the opportunity to study and learn from phenomenal artists, including Wolf Kahn.  His love of color inspired me to celebrate vivid hues in my own work and I am forever indebted to him for that passion.  My still life paintings have been influenced by the work of Janet Fish. I aspire to bring the same passion and celebration of life to my paintings. 

​

I hope you enjoy my work and that it brings color into your life.  I see beauty in the world and want to convey that awe and wonder to you with my paintings and other works of art.

​

Please text me if you would like to purchase any of my paintings or mixed media work or if you have questions.

 

Sincerely,

 

Patti T.
