Patrick Woodman

biography 3 of 3

Here, under the crisp blue light of Taos and surrounded by the wide open spaces of the American West, Mr. Woodman's list of subjects grew to include not only the West Grand paintings of Monument Valley, the Tetons, Zion and Yosemite as well as local subjects; adobe walls and gates with hollyhocks, the daily life of the Tewa Indians of Taos Pueblo and the Hopi Indians of Third Mesa, fiery night scenes of mystic rituals and the subdued beauty of the Pueblo at night.

Since 1988 Mr. Woodman has maintained a home and studio among the quiet solitude of the coastal mountains of California.
