O’Rourke Joins Fairfield as Summer Docent

The Fairfield Art Center has announced that Door County artist Patricia “Patty” O’Rourke will be serving as gallery docent throughout the summer season. O’Rourke is a mixed-media collage and assemblage artist who creates her unique works with, as she puts it, “vintage paper ephemera, weathered bits of memorabilia and found objects.”

While she hasn’t had any formal art training, her work evolves and changes as she learns to manipulate paints, oils, pastels and other materials to achieve the desired effects. In addition to participating in a number of exhibitions and art shows throughout the year, O’Rourke also teaches art classes, produces commissioned pieces and sells a line of greeting cards,

Despite her myriad artistic pursuits, O’Rourke says she was seeking a job opportunity to add to the mix for the summer season.
