Living in Northfield, MN, most of my images are of this town: its architecture, its gardens, its people, and the two colleges, St. Olaf and Carleton.  The farms and countryside of southeastern Minnesota are also favorite subjects.  My camera is a constant companion, so recent images include scenes from Boston, southern California and Colorado.

The world is incredibly rich visually.  All things are in some way beautiful, interesting, or humorous.  As a photographer I watch for those moments when the light is just right, or the juxtaposition of patterns is fascinating, or the color scheme is irresistible, or I perceive humor in the scene.  The more I look, the more I see, as all things ordinary are in some way extraordinary.

My photographic greeting cards are sold in the St. Olaf Bookstore, the Northfield Arts Guild Shop, Just Food Co-op, the Paradise (Faribault) and Stamp ‘n’ Hand (La Crosse, WI).  On line purchases are possible via e-mail: contact me at patsydew@mac.com or by phone, 507-663-7900.  All images on this web site are available as enlargements.
