Pat has joined forces with legendary international painter/ sculptor/architect  Brett-Livingstone Strong.

Unique to our mass media age, his level of success is characterized by broad fame and its attendant myth making, a lifestyle enjoyed earlier in this century by Picasso, Dali and Andy Warhol.

Today, near the height of his career, Brett Livingstone Strong has become an ambassadorial spectacle of international goodwill... a painter, a sculptor and architect of monumental ideas.

Pat has purchased the famous 5' X 4' oil on canvas original of "Marilyn Monroe", with an exact reproduction of Marilyn's signature, hand and footprint impressions from the famous Mann's Chinese Theatre Forecourt in Hollywood, originally made on the 26th of June, 1953.

The painting was unveiled by Andy Warhol in 1985.

.

This collaboration marks the beginning of a period of growth for Pat, who is himself an accomplished portrait artist.

The important Fine Art Limited Print Series of "A Tribute to Marilyn Monroe", a Limited Edition of only 300 reproductions being produced, celebrates and commemorates the talents of an individual who has made lasting creative contributions to our society.

The estate of Marilyn Monroe along with Mann's Chinese Theatre have given their joint authorization for the exclusive reproduction rights to the original signature, hand and footprint impressions of Marilyn.

Brett-Livingstone Strong's private collectors are among the most influential people in the world, ranging from heads of state to royalty. Portrait commissions have included Prince Charles, Dr. Armand Hammer, Elizabeth Taylor, Rupert Murdoch and Michael Jackson. Brett’s original paintings have become prized rarities selling for ever-higher record prices.
