Michael Patterson relocated to Great Falls in 2001 where he has become a member of the thriving art community in that city. He was selected as a member of the Montana Painters Alliance in October 2006.

Artists Statement: Its been said a million times that art is an expression, by the artist, that attempts to transmit his feelings about a particular subject.  My efforts to paint scenes of western Montana are just that, an attempt to share with the viewer the awe I experience when viewing the works of our creator.
