Pat’s favorite subjects are naturally—horses, as well as other animals. Her bronzes are found in collections across fourteen countries and in the homes of royalty, museums and corporate presidents. The years of experience as an accomplished horsewoman through training, breeding and showing championship horses has given Pat Roberts the opportunity to study the subject she loves best. It was a natural for her to gravitate toward creating numerous sculptures of the horse in motion. Pat, who says that she had had no formal training, has attended workshops given by contemporary artists she admires and credits for keeping her true to her own style, which has been described as realistic with just a touch of impressionism. Pat likes to spend time capturing and creating the ambiance of both the Old and the New West in her sculptures of charros, buckaroos, modern-day cowboys and old-time Western ladies who rode sidesaddle.
