| Site Map
This website consists, generally, of
catalog pages (overviews) and detail pages. The catalog pages
contain many small images. When you are in a catalog page, you click
on any small image. This takes you to a detail page showing a larger
view of that work. You click again on the larger image of the work
and are brought back to the catalog page.
There are three main catalog pages:
Floor Art,
Paintings, and Furniture.
-
Floor Art is divided into
Installations,
Themes,
Secrets, and
Reviews.
-

Patricia Dreher's floor pieces as laid down in the clients' homes,
together with the client's furnishings, cabinets, and other art.
-
Themes shows groups of
floor pieces (which may be from actual installations or from the
artist's sketchbook) all having the same general cultural reference
point or motif, namely:

generally by East Asian ideas
