Patti Davis Ganek
"Beyond the Blues" Abstracted Seascape Acrylic Painting

2023

About the Item

In Beyond the Blues, Patti Davis Ganek captures the expansive calm of the shoreline with her signature blend of abstraction and impressionism. Layered oil strokes evoke shifting tides and breezy skies, blending earthy textures with luminous cool tones. A symphony of cerulean, sand, moss, and charcoal unfolds across the canvas, grounding the viewer in a place that feels both familiar and dreamlike. This seascape invites slow looking, offering a meditative pause—a moment just beyond the waves, beyond the blues. About Patti Davis Ganek: My work is an exploration of both the natural world and the inner self—through florals, seascapes, and abstract expressionism. I am drawn to the dynamic energy of the New England coastline, where the rugged rocks, the shifting sands, and the constant pulse of the surf offer a profound sense of both grounding and freedom. Similarly, in my floral paintings I embrace the delicate yet fierce beauty of nature, capturing flowers not just in the form but in their essence, where every brushstroke becomes a living gesture. I paint with a loose, expressive approach, driven by an impulse to make marks that mirror the energy of the world around me. The abstract expressionist movement has deeply influenced my work, inspiring me to create large canvases where I engage in a dialogue with my materials—acrylics, inks, and other mixed media—allowing the marks to evolve organically and intuitively. Music plays a crucial role in my creative process. When I listen to powerful, electric music and enter a meditative mental space, magic happens. These moments of free-flowing, uninhibited painting allow my work to take on a life of its own, where I trust the process and let emotion lead. Whether I am capturing the energy of a flower or the movement of the ocean, I find that abandoning thought and surrendering to the rhythm of my brushstrokes allows me to truly express myself. Painting has become both an escape and a source of therapy for me. Over the years, my art has served as a vital release from the challenges of my personal life, particularly in caring for my husband, who has been ill for many years. Through this process, I’ve found that art is not just an outlet for my emotions, but a place where I can explore the wild beauty of the world and my inner landscape, both of which provide me with endless inspiration. Whether I am painting a sweeping seascape or the fragile form of a flower, my aim is to invite viewers into the moment—to feal the energy, the texture, and the raw emotion that flows through each brushstroke. Every piece I create is a reflection of my journey, my love for nature, and my connection to the ever-changing world around me.
