Artlovers

Patty Meotti, born in Milan, Italy, on Valentine’s Day 1962, is now living between Saint Martin (West Indies) and Italy.

The desire to express herself with colors started already as a young girl. She followed her passion by going to various Art schools, where she learned different techniques like graphic ink, color pencil, aquarelle, and acrylics.
She started her first steps in the art world as hyper realistic Illustrator using photographs to reproduce the images, especially portraits.

This she continued to do for many years, until she had a grave car accident which changed her life, physically and psychologically.
She lost most of the sensibility of the right hand, and this caused her to change her style of painting. Now she does more abstract, follows her passion for Hats of the époque “La Dolce Vita”, of which the greatest part of her collection consists. “La Dolce Vita” was a period after the Second World War -50’s and 60’s- during which Itay was booming economically, mainly thanks to the “Vespa” scooter and “Fiat 500” car, all Made in Italy.
It was during the same period that her father was very successful as Doctor in Chemical Industry, and which left her many photo’s and memories, which explains her passion with Hats of that time period.

She is a member of the “Art lovers Association” of Saint Martin and now paints acrylics on canvas, as well as trompe l’oeil Murals.
