Patrick Thackeray

I am a loving husband and father of three children. I grew up in Orange and Riverside Counties and have also lived in Nevada and Arizona, but made it back to California again.
By trade, I am a repair technician, fixer of household appliances.   By choice, I am a fan of scary rollercoasters.   By the grace of God, I am a grateful and faithful servant.
My grandmother taught me to paint when I was 9 and she still guides my hand. My best medium is oils because you can work on the same canvas for days or months, getting newly inspired before the paint dries.

‘Over the years I have used my hands to fix things, appliances mostly, but also cars, clocks, you name it. That is the hallmark of a good artist.’
