So where generally do you find your inspiration? Is it, is it out taking walks in the woods and looking for interesting things to photograph or?

It's always nature, always nature, always walking through greenways and parks.
5:10
Uh, I travel.
5:11
I went to the Pacific Northwest and just absolutely gorgeous up there and got a lot of photos and just experienced the textures and the colors of nature.
5:23
It's, it's right there, just the perfect inspiration for me.
5:28
I grew up along the beach, and just the sandpipers and the shore birds and the sound of the waves and, you know, you've got sound, you've got heat from the sun and sand under your feet, and it's just a very, uh, sensual type place.
5:45
So again, you, you get inspiration from that kind of experience.

[Instrumental music] Patty has three works in this exhibition that I think are best described as landscapes that she has created using images of the beach and found leaves and branches, and all of them using her skills in cyanotype as well as embroidery and latch hooking, which is a rug-making technique.
