Patricia (Pati) Maguire
Wildflowers, Oil
I have been very fortunate to have lived in several countries and been exposed to many cultures, history and traditions. I I am drawn to a variety of people, languages, and imagery. My work reflects who I am.
I was Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Formative years in Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, USA. Fine Art degree from Skidmore College. MBA from Florida Atlantic University.
Living in South Florida for the last few decades, the Vail Valley, Colorado, and Waynesville, North Carolina.
I find beauty in the play of light, in the colors of the landscape and in the expressions of people.
Basically, I want to paint everything!
I will never live long enough to paint all the beauty I see and have captured with my camera. I paint both en Plein Air and in my studio.
I love to share my passion with my students.
My preferred media is oil,,but I also paint with acrylics, pastel and charcoal.
