An explosion of colour greets the viewer’s eye in this abstract painting by Scott Pattinson. A whirlwind of brushstrokes in yellows, blues, pinks, purples, orange, red, green, white and black creates a wildly dynamic piece. The Canadian abstract artist is known for his intuitive use of colour to convey emotion.

“There is an urgent pace to the new work, with a more sustained energy, like a flood of expressions and a need to embrace the way emotions move and pass through us…”
Scott Pattinson

“Pattinson plays with the emotional triggers of colors, mostly by slamming together unlikely, even decadent, contrasting hues….” Montreal art critic R.M. Vaughan

He studied architecture and urban design at the University of Toronto and completed a BES in Urban Design from the University of Waterloo. Since 2005, he has exhibited in numerous group and solo shows in galleries across Canada, including a 2014 retrospective at Gallery Stratford. His work is held at Gallery Stratford as well as in numerous corporate and private collections in Canada, Dubai, Italy, France and the US.
