Patrick Smith

Art by Patrick Smith My paintings and drawings confront the viewer with surreal faces composed of disparate geometric forms. Though largely improvised, each is carefully honed to evoke the psychological presence of its subject. I hope that in meeting the gaze of these alien faces, with their invocations of psychic fragmentation and wholeness, the onlooker will find some part of his or her own self reflected.
