Our Artists
Patricia Krueger-Harding
The
second oldest of seven talented children, Patricia’s gift of
artistic insight began to reveal itself during her early childhood
years. She was encouraged by her late father to pursue her passion
in art as early as age six.
By the time she was ten she had become a student of the renowned watercolor artist Franklin Bates. Later in her life she studied under the late, masterful artist and portrait painter James E. Seward. In her paintings, Patricia strives to share with everyone her vision.
Although she paints in an almost photo-realistic manner, the images she creates speak to the beholder in a far deeper language than a mere snapshot can convey. Her message is delivered in the faces of the children that she paints.
Patricia was awarded Her Side's magazine 2014 Woman of the year. Click here to read the article.
