Still Life - Pat Hinton

Local artist Pat Hinton of Louisburg, NC, presents a thoughtfully composed still life that exemplifies her elegant approach to simplifying form, shape, and color. Hinton—who served as a librarian at Louisburg College before dedicating herself fully to painting—works across multiple media, including still lifes, landscapes, and collages, all created in her Louisburg studio .

In this still life, Pat arranges everyday objects—perhaps ceramics, textiles, or florals—with a clear focus on balance and geometric clarity. Her acrylic brushstrokes, often layered subtly, highlight the interplay between light, shadow, and surface texture. The result is a composition that feels both serene and visually resonant, blending minimalist influences with a keen sense of warmth and intimacy.

Through her work, Hinton captures more than objects—she evokes moments of reflection and quiet appreciation. Her still lifes are ideal for collectors seeking regional artwork that brings thoughtful beauty and understated elegance into the home.
