Patrick has created many period portraits of Ports around the world, from New York to Charleston, SC, to London. Here's a painting of the famous town of Portofino on the Amalfi Coast of Italy. In the years before mass tourism, the many small coastal villages of Italy were still dedicated to fishing. This view of Portofino features the typical Italian fishing boats called feluccas.
