Patricia Gray, Black Spruce Studio

Visual Art

Patricia grew up in an isolated region of Northern Canada where she developed a close kinship with the natural world as a young child. That kinship remains the basis for her art in which the patterns and textures of nature are turned into graphically striking images. Painting on gallery wood panels, she allows the physicality of her materials to reveal the innate qualities of the Canadian wilderness that she depicts. Working with a wide array of acrylic paints, gels, pastes, and grounds, she creates enchanting relief, designs, and highly textured surfaces that engage the viewer. Her bold colour palette and fluid style give her landscapes a unique, powerful presence capturing the essence of the wilderness while exploring the intimate relationship between art, nature, and the Self. Patricia has master’s degree in transpersonal psychology and had a private practice for 20 years. She is also a published author. Her book “ISNESS: When Only the Silence Remains,” was published in 2025.
