Artist Residencies in America's Parks
Patricia Canelake

Patricia Canelake, Northern Minnesota
Patricia Canelake participated in the first year
of Sleeping Bear Dunes Artists-in-Residency program. Instead of staying
in a modular home as originally planned, she lived in a tent. "It was
cold," Canelake says, "I was outside for three weeks, but I loved
it. I had the sand dunes and Lake Michigan right in back of my tent. I'd
pick wild apples and bake them over my fire at night or roast vegetables
from a roadside stand. I became kind of primitive."

- I painted Lake Michigan and the empty yellow buildings and big elm
trees of Glen Haven, a ghost town. I lived, ate slept and painted outdoors
for three weeks. Everything was very immediate and direct. The paint stayed
on my hands and clothes until I got home.
