Travel to Italy with artist, Wendie Patch, “I suppose I consider myself a portrait artist, even though I do lots of other subjects. It is just that the human face trully facinates me and I find it such a challenge. I absolutely love it at a stage in my paintings when the subject comes out at me, and I recognise their spirit and feel their soul. I love to work in Acrylics as they dry so fast, and I can have them hanging on the wall the same day and I love large paintings where I can be more expressive. I work in my studio, upstairs above the gallery/cafe, called The Other Side and in a little room off my bedroom when I want to be near the family, a bit cramped but I feel safe and not so selfish.”
