Faribault's Talented Artisans

Grace McKinstry, the daughter of a pioneer Faribault newspaperman, studied at Shattuck-St. Mary's, the Mpls. and Chicago Institutes of Art, and in Paris with Raphael Collin. She became an internationally known portrait painter, and her art is held in public collections in the U.S. and abroad. Faribault was also home to two renowned woodcarvers, Ivan Whillock and Marvin Kaisersatt. Whillock studied with the masters Angel Lillo and Eduardo Gutierrez, and Kaisersatt trained under Whillock before gaining fame as a carver of caricature figures.
