"It's been an honor and privilege to offer Patricia Leidl's truly unique artwork to my customers. Provincetown is the oldest continuous artist colony in the United States, with more than 50 active galleries representing hundreds , so the competition among artists for wall space in galleries here can be quite fierce.
As a result, the quality of work on exhibit in Provincetown is on par with, and often superior to, that of that on view in major metropolitan centers anywhere. Arcadia has been in business for 24 years, with locations in NYC and Provincetown, MA and we have represented Patricia in Provincetown for three years.

Patricia's showing at Arcadia was a success for many reasons. Surrealist art, especially informed by the incredible range of influences both obvious and subtle in Patricia's work, is unusual in today's marketplace and therefore makes an instant impression on viewers. Her subject matter has a depth and complexity that is rarely found in more old school "living room art" galleries. Her sense of humor, mixed with deeply moving images, create a juxtaposition of emotions rarely found in art today, while the intricacy of the work itself invites viewers to do a deep dive into the work, getting lost in the images for minutes at a time, then stepping back once again to just enjoy it as a whole.

I am sure that Patricia's work will find a niche in any gallery which attracts customers looking for something different, something complex but fun, art that speaks to the modern world while reaching back into history."

“I have several pieces of
Patricia Leidl’s art, and I love each one.

Her work is beautifully rendered in rich, complex colours and subtle textures. Each subject is darkly whimsical, filled with quirky, clever details, expressive and contemplative. Her style is evocative of Russian iconography. It has pomp, ceremony and a subtle twilight aura, yet mocks both physical and mental rigidity, inviting contemplation of the human journey itself.”

"The art of P.L. has real and  measurable
influence on the observer.

Common and uncommon comments on her expression come from any and all who visit my home, where her work is on display.

I find that her offerings bring a vibrant, stimulating presence to my time spent close to her art.

"The power of Patricia's art is visceral - it grabs you like a work by Francis Bacon might do. Her colours are subtle and pleasing to the eye, her theme is transformation and her love for suffering humanity evident.  If pity was a colour, you'd find it on Patricia's palette.  Her frequent use of that mood or tone elevates her work to the status of iconic, and even religious."

"I am now the proud owner of
"Moth", a great framed print by Patricia, shown here on my wall at home. It's admired by all who see it."
