Allison Estergard is an artist living in Palmer, Alaska. She grew up in Oregon’s Willamette Valley and earned a degree in Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences at Oregon State University. She moved to Alaska in 2014 and began focusing on her artistic pursuits after realizing she could combine her appreciation and understanding of the natural world with the skills she had developed in drawing and painting courses. Her abstract paintings, which often focus on isolated features, are inspired by the Alaskan landscape. Her first solo exhibition, Existence Value, was held at International Gallery of Contemporary Art in February of 2017. Current projects continue her investigation of glaciers and snow.
