Patricia Lewis, of London, Ontario, is now displaying her work at the Turner Gallery for a limited time! Patricia is actually the mother of our full-time summer guest artist Andrew Lewis, who is both a graphic designer and fine artist.
Born in Wales and emigrated to Canada in 1956, Patricia joined the Canadian Embroiderers Guild in 1973 and began teaching for the guild in 1975. She served on the executive committee for 10 years, including as President.
Patricia, Andrew, and Winnie, Andrew's beloved daschund/muse, in the Gallery.
Having attended numerous workshops by national and international fibre artists, she developed an interest in liturgical work and now has works in churches in Canada and in Wales. Having spent most of her life with needle and thread, Patricia now delves into the other medium(s) including paint and brush creating fascinating new works. She is the proud mother of two sons who inspire her to be adventuresome not only with her art but in her life.
She has developed a very unique style of modern art that is 3 dimensional, with great use of colour.
