Patrick Shannon - Metal Artist
Plates | Wall Sculpture | Freestanding Sculpture
Patrick Shannon has been living in the beautiful hardwood forest of Northern Minnesota for most of his adult life. Nature, art, and the legacy of indigenous people continue to provide inspiration and direction for his work. His career began with clay (hand built pottery and sculpture) and has recently shifted to metals, primarily copper and steel. The work is a result of many different techniques and usually involves incorporation of a multiversity of materials including such things as natural reed, wood, stone, etc.
Patrick and his partner, Helena Johnson, built a gallery on their property to invite the public to enjoy exceptional art, artist studios , and sculpture gardens in the beautiful acreage in the Minnesota countryside. They also invite artists and art specialists to give workshops that are open to the public.
