Patty Bailey Sheets was born and reared in Lewisville, North Carolina where she and her husband Barry still live. She was interested in art from an early age and went on to study at Salem College where she earned a BA in studio art, graduating with honors. Smce 1993, Patty has worked at her art full time producing commissioned pieces, paintings for limited edition prints, and when time permits, a painting for the sheer pleasure of it.

Patty doesn't limit herself to any one subject, but whatever her subject, the painting is sure to be filled with the fine detail that characterizes all her work. Her artwork is included in many corporate and private collections.
