About the Item

Patrica Crotty's abstract oil painting, "Blue Water," features organic shapes that appear to float in a watery blue landscape. Blues and pinks and greens and ochre yellows fill the canvas with energetic brushstrokes and areas of calm. Blue Water speaks to the multi-layered environment that encompasses a sense of calm and inviting energy. The 24 x 18 x 1.5 inch canvas is finished with a 25 x 19 x 1.75 wood frame. Patricia Crotty’s colorful gestural paintings are inspired by nature and the hidden forces that lie beneath everyday experience. Her work reflects the tension between chaos and order, fluidity and form, reflecting the natural world’s unpredictability and underlying design. Inspired by the impressionist sensitivity of Monet and Matisse, as well as the gestural dynamism of Abstract Expressionists Willem de Kooning and Joan Mitchell, her works merge observational starting points with intuitive abstraction. Her process begins with sketches drawn from life, capturing fleeting impressions that she later develops in the studio through an intuitive process of layering and revision. Her abstract landscapes are responses to the beauty of nature, which is constantly unfolding, reflecting both personal emotion and broader ecological themes. In an era of accelerating technology and climate change, her work aims to reassert a sensory connection to the natural world. Crotty is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.
