🌊 Meet our PS Artist of the month! Patricia Waterman is a lifelong artist, surfer, and former professor who created the 3D Modeling & Animation Program at Santa Ana College and UC Irvine Extension. Inspired by the joy, wonder, and freedom of life in and around the ocean, her paintings celebrate the energy, playfulness, and beauty of the California coast. 🏄♀️☀️
Rather than depicting the ocean’s literal appearance, Patricia explores the feeling of being in the water—the exhilaration of riding a wave, the warmth of sunlight on the water, the playfulness of marine life, and our connection to the natural world. Through vibrant color and movement, she hopes to evoke the energy, optimism, and freedom that inspire her life in and around the ocean. Her art will be displayed the whole month of July!
