Inktober 2018

Hi everybody! 
I'm participating in Inktober this year.  My instagram account will be the place I share my daily doodles. I'm going to be doing simple black ink drawings. If you want the history or more info about Inktober just click the link. There is a prompt list. I might use it sometimes, but mainly I'll just be having fun. I will be recuperating from surgery for most of the month. So this is good timing.
I hope you join in! If you do either tag me or message me so I can see.

xo, Patti

I'm having fun experimenting!

So I've been making little videos. If you ever watch stuff on YouTube please come and subscribe to my channel. Patti Backer  Give me feedback too and thumbs up would be amazing. These first tries are tiny....but I'm working on more detailed projects. I have so many ideas. Thank you so much!

A Look Around my Studio

Happy Happy Holidays Everyone!

Happy 2015!

Hi! Better late than ever. I wanted to share my first painting of the year with you. Nest Under the Sea is for a group show that opens tonight at The Globe here in town. The show is titled Medium and there's some really great local art. I'm still recovering from the flu, so I'm not sure I'll be there, but go and have fun! It'll be a good party.

Octopus and Birds

This is a commission I did a week ago. A birthday present for a sister of a friend. I hope she likes it! I had a lot of fun painting it. Happy birthday Amy B!

Purple dog has a new bone by Patti Backer

our new coffee table

This is our new coffee table....and we love it! Even if we do say so ourselves. It was a collaboration between Jason and I. He built it using all scraps and found wood and I painted it. I will be adding a lot more bugs to the top as time goes on. I need to get to work on new inventory for upcoming shows.
We are starting a line of painted tables. All built from reclaimed wood and construction scraps. Jason designed incredibly sturdy and useful tables. He's so talented! So... more on this coming soon. Thank you so much for looking, please let me know what you think.

There is a Whale in the Garden

I just finished a new painting. It will be on display at The Rehoboth Art League through August.
I love the idea of things being askew and a whale in the garden is just that. He's not sure how he got there....but he likes it and so do all the garden creatures. Thank you so much for looking at my work.
xo, Patti
