Pat McManus
Pat McManus has been painting wildlife and landscapes since the middle 1980's and has received many awards for his work. His paintings are also featured in many distinguished collections.
Pat is very meticulous about the preparation and execution of any piece he undertakes. He is an avid photographer who spends innumerable hours in the field carefully studying and recording reference material for future subjects. His paintings are the result of careful observation and diligent efforts, and feature meticulous detail and exceptional technical mastery.
Pat's artwork is best known for its ability to convey the mood, beauty and energy of the animals and landscapes he delights in portraying. The artist strives to bring to his paintings the same sense of wonder he felt when he first encountered the animal or location used in the painting. He portrays the animals he depicts in nature, and in their true environments, in the same way a portrait painter brings in references of the portrait?s subject to reflect the character of the sitter.
Pat and his wife, Mary, reside in Michigan, with their three children. Currently Pat is concentrating on painting the scenes and wildlife of Alaska.
