The longtime music impresario has added another hat to his repertoire in recent years – that of a landscape photographer. Along with his life and Murphy Productions partner Erma Murphy, Patrick moved from Mill Valley to Stinson Beach a few years ago, and he was immediately taken by the beauty of Stinson, so much so that he began taking photos on his iPhone, often stunned by the gorgeous results.
A collection of those photos, under the moniker “
Reflections: The Wonder of Stinson Beach,” will be on display at the Mill Valley Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center (85 Throckmorton Ave.), throughout July, with a wine reception set for the Mill Valley Arts Commission’s First Tuesday Artwalk on July 11, 6-8pm.Mill Valley’s monthly celebration of local art features a host of venues, including the O’Hanlon Center for the Arts, Seager Gray Gallery, the Mill Valley Public Library, Dolls and Dandy Nail Lounge, Terrestra, the Depot Bookstore & Café, City Hall, Famous4, the Mill Valley Community Center and the Throckmorton Theatre.

“The iPhone has provided everyone with the ability to become photographers,” Patrick adds. “It can fit in your pocket and be taken anywhere. It also has great opportunities to modify photos in unique and beautiful ways. Some of the photos here are modified taking the image to a new place, while others are not.”
