His masterpiece is The Pentateuch of the Cosmogony with Dave Greenslade http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pentateuch_of_the_Cosmogony

Sorry to hear this, he was a really talented artist. RIP Patrick. I also really liked his cover for Greenslade's Time and Tide.

I remember his art from way back and have always liked it. My condolences to his family and friends.

He was one of the very best,incorporating all kinds of mediums into his pieces including mono printing,airbrush,oil acrylic watercolor and egg tempura paints,pen and ink,sculpture and other techniques and he was not at all shy about describing in detail his many tricks of the trade. Very instructive and inspiring. His paintings could have a futuristic look and feel as well as an old world flavor in the same work of art. A class act whose passing is a very sad loss.One could more than likely detect his influence on my work especially in the paintings I created for The Psychedelic Ensemble's wonderful album of 2011, The Dream of the Magic Jongleur:  http://www.samdelrussi.imagekind.com

Sad news. Loved his work with Dave Greenslade. I love the book more than the music on The Pentateuch.......and he did present Greenslade's Time And Tide album exquisitely. R.I.P. Patrick.
