Pat's new technique of working on gessoed 

watercolor paper allows her to capture the vivid 

colors and textures associated with her subjects.  

The paint sits on the gessoed surface instead of being

absorbed into the paper, resulting in brighter, more 

dynamic color.  The gesso also creates textures as 

the paint settles into the crevices and mixes with 

other colors of greater or lesser density giving a 

3-dimentional effect.
