A statement art piece by Patrick Dougher. Dougher’s art depicts everyday people of color as gods and goddesses. His work is captivating, bold and powerful and reflects his fascinating Brooklyn upbringing but it also reflects to some extent the harsh environment for some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrick Dougher is an inspiring artist with a gifting for fusing together disparate ideas into a powerful statement about the human experience. His artwork boldly celebrates people of color in all walks of life, from the regal to the down-trodden, and he uses his creations to paint an image of strength that defies their circumstances. From portraits on canvas to inventive renditions made from cans retrieved from the refuse, Patrick Dougher\u2019s art speaks volumes and will no doubt be remembered for generations to come.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n
