Meryl Pataky is an artist unlike so many we know. She strives in concept and technical form, with a wide range of skills that encompass working in neon, copperplate, and paper making. Her work is often introspective, and most definitely bold.

URBAN OUTFITTERS BLOG: Meryl Pataky Neon Art
Meryl Pataky's sculptures elevate neon beer signs into an art form.
