In addition to being a prolific artist, Pat has also shared her talents and insights through teaching. She served as Artist-in-Residence for the Escambia County High Schools and taught a Humanities course for Pensacola Junior College which took students to Rome, Florence and Venice. Her most unique experiences were producing a 13 part television show for WSRE “Painting with Pat Regan” and sharing her expertise with artists in Amman, Jordan.
Artist Statement
Looking back at a lifetime of painting makes me realize that I have come full circle. The non-objective and figurative art I created in college still resonate in my work.
In the last five years my paintings have become more about content. I am passionate about the environment and several of the works in this exhibition speak to my concerns. I continue to evolve by experimenting with unusual methods and materials to express my vision.
