Comments on: In Memoriam – Patrick Turner http://www.powderhornartfair.com/patrick-turner/ Powderhorn Park, Minneapolis Wed, 13 Jan 2010 03:57:01 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Elaine Lanoue and Guiteau Lanoue http://www.powderhornartfair.com/patrick-turner/comment-page-1/#comment-54 Elaine Lanoue and Guiteau Lanoue Thu, 24 Dec 2009 03:57:06 +0000 http://www.powderhornartfair.com/?p=465#comment-54 As we approach this holiday season, I was remembering Patrick Turner and how much he is missed. He must be looking down at us with His heavenly Father smiling down at us as we strive to make it thru this life on earth. He brought many of us artists great joy with his kind spirit and I know his daughter is missing her Daddy. I feel I know Patrick a little more through his beautiful daughter Jamila. I wanted just to take a moment and remember Patrick. As we approach this holiday season, I was remembering Patrick Turner and how much he is missed.

I will tell that the images I saw that day were so rich and gutsy and I was so proud to be there . I met Patrick and we talked and he had that great humanity about him that matched his art.I have been friends with him for a few years and we would talk over the phone about art and life. I just learned today that Patrick passed away. I hope he knew how he touched so many of us with his kind soul,and his wonderful collages.Love,Peace ,and Joy to his family.

There was no "getting to know you" with Patrick; he was the real deal from the first handshake. I will forever cherish memories of partying at Shaw, of long rambles at Bayou City and , always, the mutual delight of finding one another at some art fair. His heart-tugging, thought-provoking work will forever be a part of me. I met Patrick years ago on the art fair circuit and we had this immediate rapport.

Patrick was unassuming and modest about his talent. I would see him from time to time at various art venues. I am shocked by his death - He was truly a talented artist and a very "real" person. He will be missed and his art will be treasured. I met Patrick many years ago at a party given by Tom Feyrer. Patrick was unassuming and modest about his talent.

He was and always will be the real deal!!! I always told patrick to enter the "Uptown" show, but he loved Powderhorn, and would never consider it. a fitting tribute to one of my best friends, If he was here he would be so shy about this tribute!

We first met over thirty years ago, becoming friends and artistic colleagues, both of us living our art experience. There will never be another like him.

I always looked forward to visiting his tent, exchanging a knowing glance of the world and some interesting philosophy. Fellow musician and a wonderful artist. I m proud to be the caretaker of "Hot Steps on a Lost Trail" from 2001. I shall keep it well. Very sad news!

I love Patrick's work and the energy and perfection in which grounded it. I have known Patrick very a long time. I have many pieces by Patrick. His work is a moving dance, it is part of our living history, our living lives and quite grounded in the essence of who we are... I always looked forward to the Powderhorn Art Festival because that is where I would always see my homeboy! I knew I was in for some great art, great conversation and just a sho-nuff great time! My son and I would laugh all day and would be loving his energy. Patrick, we are so going to miss you, but we know, you will always be there!

I always looked forward to seeing him. I would be riding around on a golf cart checking on the artists and he would always flag me down for a chat. We talked about art, music and Milwaukee. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing. He was a fantastic artist full of creativity and humor. We will all miss Patrick at the Powderhorn Art Fair and know he will be there with us in spirit.
