I am the Director of the Loring Park Art Festival and one of the original founders.
I'm not exhibiting this year but my photos are still available for sale - contact me through my website - www.patparnow.com

My color photographs include subjects from intimate flower portraits to the old world charm of European scenes. The photographs are printed with a conventional RA-4 process-- although the way I print is far from conventional using many self-devised darkroom techniques.

At heart I am a functional potter. I throw all of my work on the wheel from stoneware clay. After the pot is thrown I frequently add slip texture to create a sense of movement and channels for my glazes to run and flow. Each piece is carefully trimmed to a finished form which is as elegant as it is functional. My glazes are hand brushed and layered to ensure beautiful outcomes which are as pleasing to the eye as they are to the touch. I fire all of my work in an oxidation environment which allows me great control of the temperatures necessary to achieve the work I envision.

Capturing emotion is everything! I achieve this by incorporating color, energy and texture into my work. Inspired by music I choose the emotion or energy I want to convey in a painting. The subject matter is often related to strength and vulnerability. I strive to convey the power we each possess, but sometimes forget, as a reminder that we can overcome any struggles we encounter in this life. My paintings begin with a charcoal sketch, and are then finished with layers of different mediums and many layers of paint. They can best be described as contemporary Impressionism. The purpose of my work is very simple. I hope that when looking at my paintings, viewers can find strength and inspiration for every day life. My artwork is unique, sometimes quirky and thought provoking.

My art tends to be impressionistic and/or abstract created on a non-porous surface such as Yupo or tile using a variety of inks. When I am satisfied with the colors and design, the art is sprayed with a protective UV coating and then finished with a two-part epoxy resin. The final step is finishing the edges, adding hangers and small felt pieces to prevent marks on the wall while hanging.

The art work I create is made by using fluid mediums such as inks and paints. The substrates I use are non-absorbent plastic sheeting (Yupo) and glazed tile. When I have completed the designs, I spray an ultra-violet protection on the art work, before embedding it in two-part epoxy resin. My designs are impressionistic florals and landscapes, or non-objective abstracts.

I work with polymer clay, making both flat wall images and 3-D sculptures. I am known for my polymer clay switc hplates. Most viewers assume that the works are painted, but all are colors of polymer clay that I have manipulated with many techniques, including millefiori cane work; which I then cure so it becomes hard plastic. Some work is over blown out eggshells or recycled glass and metal object armatures; others incorporate found objects like driftwood and recycled materials such as 3-D formed cardboard packing inserts.
