Plein Air painter Joe Paquet portrays the everyday lives of those living and working around him. He draws inspiration from the alleys and streets in downtown St. Paul to taconite plants on the Iron Range in Minnesota. Paquet teaches and paints at Hurinenko and Paquet Studio in St. Paul, Minnesota. Paquet's recent awards include both Artists' Choice and Collectors Choice from the 2007 Laguna Beach Plein Air Invitational as well as the 2008 Alden Bryan Memorial Prize from the Salmagundi Club of New York. He has exhibited in numerous galleries nationally as well as in Minnesota.
