Bob Pokorney writes: Since receiving my BA in art history from Colorado College in 1999, I have been working as a bicycle-and kayak-tour guide, spending most of my time outside in compelling landscape. Most of my paintings work with the memories of those landscapes, especially those here, of Lake Superior, where I live. I recently won a 2003 McKnight/Minnesota State Legislature Career Development Grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council in Duluth to paint in New Mexico, and will begin pursuing a Master's Degree in French from Middlebury College this summer.
