“My work is an invitation to explore, to imagine possibilities and ideas that give life.”
Patty DelValle
Abstract Expressionist
With Every Painting
“I strive with every painting to express what I see as beautiful. To push past the inner turmoil of vulnerability and anxiety; feeling the resistance and be fully open anyway, creating freely and authentically, in hopes that my vulnerability of expression connects the viewer to something real; something that delights, brings a smile or simply causes someone to pause for a moment to take it in.”
