In December 2009 Jimmy Buffett's longtime friend saw Patrick's art and asked him to create pieces of art with Jimmy's lyrics. Those pieces of art are now sold exclusively in Margaritaville, Charleston.

"Everyone needs a little more happiness in their life and that is exactly why this art connects with people. It makes them feel good. At Lax Splash in Timonium, Patrick Reid O'Brien will meet with collectors and friends, sign artwork and offer for sale the first editions of his two newest pieces created exclusively for Lax Splash. From the collection that earned him 2008 Artist of the year at Ocean Gallery World Center for the Arts, the " MyTown Art" collection is warm, colorful , fun,  and speaks to your heart. The 2 new Lax Splash pieces will be sold for $36 at the event and are only available at the Timonium Fairground location inside the track.

"Everyone has a story to tell about their life. This art allows them to tell that story with style. A person collects the places that have meaning to her on a personal level: a beach where she grew up, the town she lived in after college, a destination honeymoon, her best friend, a black labrador." This art is also a great way to solve that "difficult-to- buy-for gift "  With galleries and stores now carrying his art in 40 states, and the Carribbean , this is a unique opportunity to meet one of the fastest selling artists in the United States. Preview the MyTownArt collection at www.mytownart.com.
