WELCOME TO ARTKARMA. THE HOME OF ARTIST, PATRICK CUNNIGHAM
The Cause and Effect of Art
Patrick Cunningham (aka Giolla Patraic, his Irish name) has been
influenced by the love of art and history all his life. Through this
passion, he has developed a philosophical way of looking at life and
the world around him.
Born in Southern California, Patrick knew at an early age what he
wanted to do with his life. His passion for history and art ultimately
led him to develop the Old Master Style for which he is known. Oil
paintings are his primary medium, but portraiture, sculpture and
figurative abstraction are also part of his work.
Patrick also believes learning is a lifelong pursuit that is essential
to one’s growth as an artist. His studies have taken him to Ceri,
Italy, a small Tuscan village where he studied fresco techniques under
Italian masters, and to France where he studied mural design.
Patrick’s work resides in numerous private collections across the
United States and Europe.
