Patricia Canelake Artist Biography
Patricia Canelake lives and works in Knife River, Minnesota near the North Shore of Lake Superior. Simple figurative and animal subjects, leashed and unleashed, are the focus of her work. Her style of painting is a fine balance between storytelling and the rough elegance of form and color. She will be returning to Plein Air painting during the Port Wing event to return to painting directly from nature.
She was awarded two McKnight Foundation Fellowships, a Jerome Foundation Travel and Study Grant, The Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Fellowships, and Arrowhead Regional Arts Council awards. She was included in the 2015 Minnesota Biennial Exhibition at the Museum of Minnesota Art.
