Patrick O'Boyle
Watching Puddles In The Rain, Abstract Painting

2024

About the Item

Artist Comments
While walking along a street, artist Patrick O'Boyle noticed the shimmer of lights and colors bouncing off a puddle. He transformed this observation into shape, line, and color. This artwork is part of his series, where he explores elements of nature that guide his creative process.


About the Artist
Patrick O'Boyle primarily paints in a studio, rarely using reference material other than his own thoughts and dreams. He always paints in a series of five - at the end of the fifth painting he revisits and reworks all of them until he feels they're complete. Using extra-long handles on his brushes, Patrick paints at a distance from the canvas so he can see the works evolve as a whole from the one color he starts with to the vibrant array at the end.

  • Suite for Four Hands, Abstract Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Linda Cassidy employs organically organized geometric forms in an alluring abstract. She uses organic shapes in a distinct dance-like relationship with one another. An evocative feeling permeates within her expressively distinct outlines—shapes in shades of deep purple and red balance the muted colorway.
