Watercolor Paintings of Imagination by Patricia Allingham Carlson
Throughout Patricia's adult life she has been painting and enjoying presenting images of the world as seen and imagined. The paintings you see here are frequently textural, suggesting multiple layers of images through time.

Special thanks to my husband, road crew, and technical advisor David E. Carlson Allingham. He works very hard to maintain my website, communications, and marketing so i can concentrate on painting.
