Welcome to the Art for Viewing ~ American Railroads web page. Here you will have the opportunity to look over
American Railroad works of art from the vast array of Patrick's body of work.

Karnahan has been oil painting since he was 8 years old. In addition to painting wildlands, Karnahan has been capturing the history of the American railroads on canvas for more than 20 years. He has completed a calendar on American railroads, and his artwork has been featured on numerous book and magazine covers. He also promotes art education for children in local schools. “It’s satisfying,” he says. “Usually, I’ll sell my paintings and won’t see them again. What I’m doing becomes part of the community.”
