BIO

Patti Friday is a Canadian Artist and Author who immerses herself in life, capturing its essence through her paint, lens and pen. Patti expresses herself through playful colour on paper and canvas. She finds inspiration in her country's landscape, bodies of water, flora, fauna, home and its cultural mosaic. Her artistic repertoire spans gouache, ink and acrylic painting, alongside ventures into mediums like oil pastels and collage. Her photographic art embodies a documentary style, presenting candid and cinematic images that showcase her passion for poetic storytelling. 

In company with her captivating visuals, she writes and illustrates books showcasing her diverse talents and creative spirit.   

    She currently resides and creates near the blue shores of Georgian Bay, Ontario.

I Adore These Quotes:


“If I can´t paint, I can´t breathe.”

“Well, I suppose nothing is meant to last forever.

We have to make room for other people.

It’s a wheel.

You get on, you have to go to the end.

And then somebody has the same opportunity

to go to the end and so on.”

– Vivian Maier, Photographer



 “The only way to assert the right to publish is to publish.” 

- Katharine Graham



"Never stop doing your work,

because that’s going to keep you grounded

and give your life purpose.

Spend as much time as you can with people that you love.

And walk a lot!"

- Maira Kalman


Some socks are loners They can't live in pairs.

- Wendy Cope
