Pat Lang, a native Marylander, is primarily a self-taught artist. She began oil painting in her late teens, learning through trial and error; visiting galleries to study famous works; and reading art instruction publications. As she experimented on techniques new to her, she used these experiences to master her own personal realistic style. Pat has exhibited in numerous art shows throughout Maryland.

Artist Statement:
“It would be difficult to image a life without painting. Art has always been an important part of my life; a retreat providing a form of mediation and satisfying my need to create. I am particularly drawn to still life, creating a scene that draws in the viewer. Everywhere I look I can see possibilities for new paintings. I carefully choose my subjects and arrange them to suggest a story, allowing the viewer their own interpretation. After many years of painting, I continue to challenge myself. Learning and growing in my art never stops as the process for each new work shows me not only where I am now, but where I want to go.”
