Michigan's four seasons inspires Patti's passion for color  with its waterways and hilly landscapes undergoing extreme change year around. She has learned that light conditions and moisture in the atmosphere determine color. In recent years, she has learned the Colorist approach which holds that each color change defines space and volume and she finds it to be a fascinating, lifelong study.

Patti has new Michigan Sunset paintings framed in cherry, pecan, and white frames. They are all oil on panel and ready to hang! She also has more of her lovely painted Michigan sunsets on canvas/paper ready for mailing.
