Patrick is an artist from the Waikato district and lives just out of Tuakau on 4 acres .

After leaving Palmerston North Boys High School he was accepted into the Elm University of Fine Arts in Auckland and a course in Visual Communication and Marketing in Wellington. He accepted the latter.

After a successful career in advertising he left the industry just last year as an Executive Creative Director and part owner of an independent advertising agency.

Since then Patrick has returned to his two great passions art and music where he combined them to create a series called 'A brush with fame.' The works have been created on brushes using acrylics and uses iconic musicians as his subjects. Some comic book characters have also become part of the series.

Patrick has always loved to collect works that draw him in and make him smile.

He hopes you enjoy the art as much as he enjoys producing them.
