My Journey As An Artist

"I see my art career as a journey of exploration. The more I create the more I learn about myself and the world around me"
Patricia Whittingham lives and works as an artist in Toronto
She graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design in 1994.
She is a member of the Akin Artist Collective Studio in Toronto.
Her body of work is based primarily on abstract landscape painting and abstract expression. Themes in her work include nature, memory and personal experience. As an artist she sees the creative process as key and trusts her artistic instincts to guide her paintings and artwork.
Patricia enjoys living in an area that is both urban and close to the waterfront. She see art as empowering for both the artist and the viewer. She has exhibited internationally and her work is in private collections.
