After 25 years working as a professional in the healthcare sector, Patti Aaronson decided to shift gears. Feeling a strong desire to return to working with her hands, Patti not only began restoring houses in both her native Baltimore but found herself relocating to the Eastern Shore in Cambridge to take on similar projects.
This was also the time when Patti returned to the easel. Eager to highlight the beauty of the Shore’s environment, its special humanity, and, in her words, its “kindness,” she took to both oils and watercolors to document that vision.
“I’ve always had a deep appreciation for beauty, particularly natural beauty and the process of making art is often a part of that for me. I’m also inspired by my desire to develop fully as an artist and a lifelong passion to create. ”
The Spy caught up with Patti in Cambridge last week to talk about her work.

I enjoyed the video and learning how Patti feels about her art, life, etc. She encourages peaceful living and being kind to one another, which is what I have found since moving here this year. Being an artist myself, I greatly appreciate the beauty of the entire Chesapeake Bay area and the sincere kindness of the people living here.

Delightful video about a delightful person.
You’ve run features like this before and I’m glad you continue to do so. Much news is about people and events that are a race to the bottom of everything that is awful about human nature, it is nice to see the Eastern Shore is attracting some creative and intellectually open-minded people.
