From Patricia's website:
I create painting, collage, painted bowls, and usable art.

I was born in São Paulo, Brazil. My first steps were drawing and watercolors. Later I got into costume design and graphic arts, working in São Paulo’s theater and in advertising companies. Since moving to Chicago in 1997, I have worked in a lot of different media, including collage, dolls Photographs, decorative art, wearing art and acrylic paintings.

I have been showing my art at several art spaces like, Galeria de Mexico in Chicago, Evanston Art Center, Friends of the Art Space, University of Chicago, Maria Pappas Office, restaurants and Numerous Art Fairs throughout The Chicago area.
