Patricia “Pat” Tindall (1926-2010) was a longtime resident of Princeton Junction. Trained in the arts since childhood, she studied at Corcoran Galleries, Abbott Art School, and Pratt Institute. Tindall received her associate in arts degree from Mercer County Community College and her BA from Thomas A. Edison College of New Jersey. She studied watercolor under Vincent Ceglia, Christopher Schink, Jeanne Dobie, and Nicholas Reale. Tindall had several solo shows and participated in many exhibits. Her work is in numerous private collections, both home and abroad, and can be seen in local businesses throughout Mercer County. Tindall’s paintings of West Windsor’s vanishing historical sites were featured in the township’s 1997 bicentennial calendar. Her style, using familiar places and objects as subject matter, was labeled romantic realism. Tindall was appointed to the Mercer County Cultural and Heritage Commission and belonged to the Princeton Art Association, Garden State Watercolor Society, Trenton Artists Workshop Association, and the West Windsor Historical Society.
