I want to give my humble and heartfelt thanks to the many people who gave their love and support to make this show, and my work possible. First and foremost, I thank my husband, Duncan
Watwood, for his unflagging belief in me and his steadfast love and support. Without him, none
of this would have been possible. Next my parents, Marjorie and Kenneth Smith, Jr., for boundless
love and encouragement, and the example: “to whom much is given, much is required.”
To the generous donors to the catalog, listed above: thank you deeply for the wind and the faith.
Special thanks to Christopher Forbes, Vice Chairman, Forbes, and Bonnie S. Kirschstein, Managing Director, The Forbes Collection, for the opportunity to exhibit at The Forbes Galleries. Many
thanks to Petruta Lipan, and the staff at SLUMA, for the extraordinary work on this exhibit.
To my family and dear friends for love and encouragement. To Sophia and Jocelyn, for love and
abiding. To my team—Monika, Gary, Stefan, Noralen, Leah, Nilda, Peter, Nelson and Vicki—your
work was invaluable and I can’t thank you enough for all your help.
Thank you all for being patrons of the arts, and for supporting this work.

Patricia Watwood has earned a place in the elite of American realist
painters. Her personal style is a sober yet lyrical view of
mankind and nature, and
reflects her own most agreeable personality. Watwood ’s work invites us to be
absorbed into her world, and be
educated thereby. It has been a great honor to know Patty and to watch her art rise to such
a
meaningful place.
