original represents a singular moment in a career that can no longer be added to—a finished body of work created entirely by the artist's own hand.
In 2017, the devastating Tubbs Fire destroyed many of Patrick's treasured original paintings. He continued to paint in the years that followed, creating some of the strongest works of his career until a stroke in 2023 ultimately brought his time at the easel to an end. After nearly two years of rehabilitation, Patrick announced his retirement in February 2025, choosing to preserve the standard of excellence that had defined his work rather than paint at a level he felt was less than his best.
With Patrick’s passing in 2026, his original body of work became permanently complete. No additional Patrick O’Rourke originals will ever be created. Many of his paintings have long since entered private collections, while others were lost forever, making the originals that remain an increasingly rare part of his artistic legacy.
