About The Artwork
It’s Where I Go (To Get Lost) - Original Canvas board size 20x16 (overall framed size is approximately 28x24) Where do I go when I want to get lost? I stroll across this bridge and leave my worries on the other side. I started testing a different process of building thickness to a canvas board by applying heavy coats of modeling paste, then sanding each down in a ‘sculpture-like’ fashion. After I was finished with the three dimensional look, I started painting, then painting more, and then more. There are probably at least 100k+ daubs of paint that I applied to get the final look. I did a lot of color blending on the canvas board itself. This is probably one of the most labor intensive paintings that I’ve done to date. About 90% of the painting was completed with a palette knife, while the rest was done with a brush. This was necessary to get the aged, mossy look to parts of the bridge, and also to give the trees some needed detail. It’s mounted in an ornate, black upcycled wooden frame that really gives it depth. It makes you want to climb into the painting and cross the bridge yourself.

Patrick Riley is a Kentucky-based artist & photographer. His oil paintings embrace abundant layers of paint applied mostly through the use of a palette knife in an impasto-type style. He often uses pigments from natural elements of the Earth in his paint to pay his respect to nature. Patrick’s distinctive style combines both symmetry and chaos. His use of bold and vivid colors arranged throughout the painting in heavy patterns form a breathtaking composition. Patrick grew up painting and drawing with a distinguishing talent for capturing objects from a unique perspective. “I want the observer to view it as if they are seeing the subject matter for the first time,” Riley explains. “I feel that you need to believe before you can see, and believing that this particular dreamlike world exists allows me to see it and paint it,” he adds. Being an admirer of poetry and a poet himself, Patrick likes to incorporate the use of poems & prose into his artwork. “The painting has so much more to say,” he states. “I don’t feel like the story ends when the last drop of paint hits the canvas.” With this being the case, most of Riley’s work also consist of an analogous story that belongs to each piece, usually inscribed onto the back of the canvas.
