Meet the Artist

Where the canvas meets the open ocean

Pat Grillo is one of the rare artists who has turned the world itself into her studio. As Artist in Residence aboard Oceania Cruises, she has spent years sailing to the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, the Baltic, and beyond — capturing each destination's light, color, and soul on canvas.

With more than 800 original paintings sold aboard Oceania's fleet, Pat's work has found homes in collections across the globe, carried home by guests who wanted to hold onto the beauty of a voyage long after the ship returned to port.

Over 800 original paintings sold at sea — each one a memory of a place the world deserves to see.
