Floral Paintings
In this series of oil paintings, Pat Cross explores, up close and personal, both garden and wild blooms. "I paint each bloom as I would a portrait, up close and personal. Collecting a series of floral paintings brings the refreshment of a garden indoors to enjoy every season of the year.

Commissions
In this series, I provide examples of artworks created in collaboration with my client, be it a portrait, landscape, historic landmark, or significant event.

Landscape Paintings
Here, Pat Cross brings the viewer along on an outdoor adventure. "When I hike a trail or paddle a lake, I scout for striking scenery to paint," says the artist, adding, "And I bite at the bit to share that experience with others." Pat Cross has explored some of our nation's most awe-inspiring geographies such as the Colorado Rockies, Oregon Cascades, and Appalachian Range.
