Biography: Since having a sold-out exhibition in 1984, Patricia has travelled extensively throughout the United States and Canada selling her original art and reproductions in juried high-end art and craft festivals.

Patricia and her husband Abe Coisman created their company Turtle Hill Productions. Under Turtle Hill, they produced and sold over 45 limited editions, numerous posters and an extensive greeting card line of her work as well as her original artwork. Patricia has been painting professionally for over 30 years and has exhibited in many fine galleries.

During this period, Patricia has entered and won awards in International art competitions such as Arts for the Parks and the American Academy of Equine Art in Kentucky. As a result of having been selected to be a participant in these events, her work was included in travelling yearlong exhibitions to many museums and galleries. Her paintings have been documented in full color catalogs as well as various books and magazines.

Patricia has been commissioned to do portraits of many prominent people and their children and her work is included in The Bronfman Collection among others. Numerous Hockey League Players have collected her hockey artwork, including Nike Sports Equipment and The Quebec Nordiques.

Her images have been reproduced on plates, jewelry boxes, end tables, stained glass lamps, place mats and coasters, crystal pendants, candles, blankets and pillows and many other items.

The figure skating image “Sisters” was selected and purchased for inclusion in the Disney film “The Ice Princess”.

For the last several years, Patricia has spent her summers at her cottage in Vermont where she teaches an art class each week.
