Patti Heimburger
If you are interested in learning more about the artist, please contact Patti
Heimburger, Phone: 510-882-0076, E-mail patti_art@comcast.net.
I want my artwork to plant seeds of optimism and compassion and hopefully thought provoking. I
enjoy transporting the viewer to another place for reflection. My landscapes are created from my
imagination, playful and whimsical. It is as if these landscapes are captured, and then placed in a
strange museum for all to look at. Many of the people I paint do not have natural skin colors but
instead, depict people as a whole or of no one heritage. Many of the backgrounds to my paintings
break away from reality.
Image is important to me as well as the process of creating the under-painting, and both are
always a continual evolution. All the reused fabric and yarn is loosely assembled, randomly
applied for the texture, then stiffened, and finally painted over in oil. The surface has no reference
to the subject matter, other than adding complexity. I try not to tell the whole story, but to allow
you some mystery to solve.

How to best describe my textural
paintings: all with a whimsical bent,
use of expressionism and
impressionism at the same time,
fiction and fantasy, haunting,
romance and sex, with patterns.
All my artwork is ready to hang on
walls because I paint the sides to
match the surface of each painting.
