About the Item
Artist Comments
The majority of my paintings are nothing more than little miracles. On occasion it;s much like riding a bicycle down a one lane flat road on a sunny day, while others are full of hills, twists, and turns, which take me into a dark forest full of witches and wolves;then suddenly I escape into the sunlight where everything falls into place, the painting appears, finding again, that it all worked out, just magic! This painting is on a cradled wood panel with finished natural edges. It comes ready to hang.
About the Artist
As a child in the 1950s, Patricia Oblack sat in front of the television and learned to draw with Jon Gnagy’s New Television Art Instruction Book. The exercise led to a love of art, and in 1962 she begged her mother to purchase lessons from Art Instruction, Inc. in Minneapolis. Within a few weeks, a box arrived with art supplies, including her first palette knife. Patricia finished every lesson, and was in good company–another student of the school was renowned Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. From that humble beginning, Patricia became a lifelong artist, currently creating dark, earthy abstracts, which she paints with the same palette knife from childhood.

Artist Comments
The inspiration for each and every painting is brought about through music ; every piece has a ;Voice; listed on the back which indicates the music involved in the process. When you receive the painting, read that information, purchase or obtain the music from a library etc. , listen to the music ; see what it inspires in yourself. Abstract is always open to the interpretations of the viewer. My work is acrylic with palette knife, there is a clear low sheen varnish on the front as well as the edges. Each piece is wired ; ready to install. Brace/frame on the back is 2; wide ; made of MDF. The masonite is cradled by way of this frame, edge painted black, face is varnished with low-sheen polyurethane. Diptych composed of two panels.About the Artist
