Patricia Tamariz - Wellington Print
Painter & Illustrator 



Patricia is an American painter, based in Wellington. She is also a teacher, visionary and illustrator. The series of paintings in her gallery page explore dreams, seasons and atmospheres of the heart. The heart is an ever changing climate filled with lyrical forms that make themselves known only after they are ready to be discovered.

Her work comes from what Maori call tuaatea, knowledge that is 'beyond space and beyond time'. Tua-Atea is the world beyond any space-time framework, it is infinite and eternal.

The working process is loosely based on internal dialogues and intuitive impulse. Engaging in an ongoing conversation with the work itself, she creates order from chaos.  Plunging in and searching for hidden relationships, rendering layers, sometimes thick, sometimes washed; working with the light, colour and depth until a sequence unfolds, revealing a secret narrative.
