Pattersons imagery is strikingly similar toGregory Thielker, whose artwork I wrote about back in 2010.

While Thielker artwork is oil based, Patterson relies on colored pencils.

She worked in numerous mediums and styles with a strong proclivity for graphite and color pencil rendering.

In 1986, Elizabeth traveled to Hawaii where she explored the magnificence of the undersea world.

The result was a series of brilliant aquatic drawings that catapulted the artist back into the world of creativity.

She continues to expand her subject matter, demonstrating an admirable mastery in graphite and color pencil drawing.
