Pat Shattuck is an artist living in Portuguese Cove, Nova Scotia. Working mainly in watercolour, Pat’s scenes of the East Coast are full of whimsy and charm—her rendering of Halifax’s architectural landscape shows her passion for keeping our urban historical sites alive, and her lovely rural pieces show a deep appreciation for nature and all it offers.

Pat picked up her brushes for good after a long career in the shipping industry, and her work has since been featured at several galleries across the province. The cards she makes from her paintings are a favourite at local shops, and it’s easy to see why folks from all around want to bring her vision of Nova Scotia home with them to remember it by. All of this makes us honoured to have her join the Paper Hearts Post Office Pen Pal family!
