Debra Otterstein lives in Eastern Oregon and is a contributor to the artists' colonies in the area. Debra discovered long ago that wildlife had captured her heart and found it most rewarding to make them the subject of her artwork. The distinctive art that Debra creates is a frequent crowd favorite at art shows and is owned by collector's throughout the United States.
These unique creations are painted on a supremely unforgiving medium-that of bird feather’s. Debra’s work is recognizable by the depth and intricate detail of the images. Unlike many paintings, which are best viewed from a distance, these intricate pieces are best viewed up close and personal. This is a very difficult effect for an artist to achieve as many errors are magnified.
Recently Debra has begun painting on a more traditional flat surface and as always the fine detail is present. Look for her wonderful Goshawk below.
Michael, Debra’s husband, carefully crafts the barn wood shadow boxes that protect and enhance the art that they contain. This combination of wildlife studies on a natural material setting in the rustic barn wood frames captivates people who value nature and appreciate artistic skill. Awards..
