Patrice Springer
I was born in Culver City, California. I have always been fascinated with the California Missions since I was a young girl. I promised myself that I would paint all of the missions so everyone could experience their tranquil beauty. Throughout the years, I have traveled throughout the Southwest and to Santa Fe where I fell in love with the architecture and the color surrounding adobe.
When I paint, I see beyond the subject and look at all the light and color that weaves in and out of the scene. I love the architecture of the old Southwest adobes as well as the Missions that line the beautiful coast of California. I use acrylic on canvas and board and lay down the color even if it isn’t mixed.
