creates vivid and luminous glass works using the time-honored techniques of cane and murrine glass blowing, originally discovered in the glass blowing studios of Venice. Patchen studied in the Public Glass studio in San Francisco under Afro Celotto.

Patchen sees glass as both a thoughtful, creative process, and an exacting technical challenge. He focuses on color and pattern and works to infuse as much detail as he can into the delicate and complex medium of glass. Each detail is purposeful and planned well in advance of the work's creation. Color is just as integral to these works as pattern, and Patchen is ever-conscious of using complimentary and contrasting colors to give the viewer a striking visual experience. His graceful forms are his own diverse and multi-layered three dimensional canvases, which draw on inspiration from textiles, ethnically distinct colors, and the marine environment. Series by Patchen include Bloom, Foglio, Resistenza, Parabola, Sphere, Piscine, Allegro, and a variety of panels and other creative forms.

大卫-帕琴使用最初在威尼斯的玻璃吹制工作室发现的历史悠久的甘蔗和鼠尾草玻璃吹制技术，创造了生动和发光的玻璃作品。Patchen在旧金山的Public Glass工作室学习，师从Afro Celotto。

Patchen认为玻璃既是一个深思熟虑的创造性过程，也是一个严格的技术挑战。他专注于颜色和图案，并努力将尽可能多的细节注入到玻璃这一精致而复杂的媒介中。每一个细节都是有目的的，并在作品创作之前就已计划好。颜色和图案一样是这些作品的组成部分，Patchen总是有意识地使用互补色和对比色，给观众一个引人注目的视觉体验。他优雅的形式是他自己的多样化和多层次的三维画布，它从纺织品、民族的独特色彩和海洋环境中获得灵感。帕辰的系列作品包括：《绽放》、《Foglio》、《Resistenza》、《Parabola》、《Sphere》、《Piscine》、《Allegro》，以及各种面板和其他创意形式。
