| About the Artist |
Patty was born in Huntington, W. Va. She is the oldest of four
children raised in the Appalachian foothills of Southern Ohio.
Growing up in a rural setting helped shape Patty to appreciate the
love of nature which is evident in her work. Her love of art began at
an early age when a 7th grade project was on display at the
Huntington Museum of Art in Huntington, W. Va.
She works mostly in oils and also likes to paint with colored
pencils. She has attended many national workshops. She has
studied with Contemporary Artist, Robert Warren, Wildlife Artist,

currently a Certified Robert Warren Instructor. Patty lives and
works from her studio, The Ridge Art Studio, in Canal Winchester,
Ohio. She has won many awards and her paintings are in many
public and private collections including Berger Health System. She
is currently teaching at National Conferences. Patty is a member of
