Fine Art and Photography by Patricia McGurk

Patricia McGurk: Artist Statement

My work in art is a source of spiritual replenishment for me, and I believe that transitive nature is reflected in my paintings and photographs. My focus on the natural world breathes fresh air into my perspective, and enhances my well-being as an artist. I am aware of the metaphorical impact of each of my subjects, and I use the metaphor generously as I work.
