Patt Scrivener was born in Nipawin, Saskatchewan, and grew up on a grain farm along with her four siblings.
She works in many mediums including acrylic, encaustic and cold wax with oil. Her work includes imagery of people, landscapes, and abstraction. The layering of a variety of media offers an assortment of possibilities within her work.
“My work is about the process – I love layering, scraping, sanding, pouring, and dripping. I use many unorthodox tools and love going to the hardware store and thrifting!
In 2007 Patt studied life coaching and this was instrumental in her decision to become a full-time artist and to help others develop their creativity. Patt devotes her time to creating original works and teaching others.
She facilitates workshops in her Parksville Studio and online. Patt is a Signature (AFCA) member of the Federation of Canadian Artists.
