Patti Arbino

I started drawing at a very young age and have always been influenced by nature and wildlife. My art education includes a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art from California State University Northridge and an Associate of Science degree in Commercial Art from Cuyamaca College in Rancho San Diego, California. I’m inspired by the colors and shapes created within nature and incorporate them into my paintings.

Waves wash against the shore. The tide slips away, leaving behind offerings in its wake.

This piece is based on a close-up of Mookaite Jasper. The natural rock patterns reminded me of petroglyphs.

The Minstrels

As the tiny rocks dance back and forth with the tides, they sing their ancient songs like traveling minstrels.

I was inspired to do this painting from a memory of a Scarlet Macaw sitting center stage in all his glory.
