As a watercolorist, Pat enjoys painting a variety of subjects. In addition to floral and other representations of nature, she particularly welcomes the challenge of painting scenes around Chicago -- the skyline as well as the neighborhoods. As an artist and a teacher, Pat is fortunate to have the opportunity to share her love of art. Her students are always an inspiration to her and her art.

Pat’s paintings have been used in Easter Seals in its holiday card assortment, as well as Ronald McDonald House holiday cards. Recently, the National Association of Realtors in conjunction with the Smithsonian Museum of American History’s exhibit, Within These Walls, commissioned a painting of this historic house.
