Short Biography
As a Mississippi native, Pat Walker was born in Tippah County. At an early age her mother, Lola Wiggs Walker, a poet of some renown in her own right, introduced Pat to the world of art. Pat spent her early years in the small Delta community of Rolling Fork, MS. where her father, Martin E. Walker, farmed. Being a "Farmer's Daughter," family, faith, teachers, and community blessed her with an attitude that she could do anything, if she tried! She will quickly tell you about her love of her childhood and for Mississippi. Her great passion and commitment comes from these deep roots. God gave her the talent and the heart of an artist, but hard work and perseverance came from the positive affirmations she was surrounded with as a child. Home, Fielding L. Wright School, Church, the people in the community just gave you a knowing... that if you never give up on your dreams, you can do anything! For this, Pat says, "she is blessed and grateful because she has never given up on her dream!"
