Patricia Haftar: Visual Artist
The greatest influences on my art have been the Group of Seven, the Impressionists, Mondrian and Picasso. I love colour , movement ,texture and pattern. I like the play between texture and pattern to create interesting flow from one area to another. Using the impact of colour to enhance the elements in my work, be it realism or abstract. I integrate predominately these four elements to create a piece that is pleasing to my eye. My work stands out because of how I apply colour, texture, movement and pattern. These four elements of design have become the signature of each piece.
