Interdisciplinary Residency, Five-Week, Session III
Roxanne Everett is a contemporary landscape painter who is inspired by wilderness areas of the US and abroad. Roxanne received a Bachelor of Architecture at the University of Idaho and a Masters degree in Forest Sciences at the University of Washington. Following a career as an Architect, she spent many years as a US National Park Backcountry Ranger, living and working months at a time in remote alpine environments. She was selected as an artist in residence for many private arts organizations (US, Iceland, Australia, Canada, Greece) plus six US National Parks.
Roxanne divides her time between the urban environment of Seattle and a tiny, remote mountain community in the North Cascades of Washington state. She shows her work regularly throughout the Pacific Northwest and is a member of Women Painters of Washington in Seattle. Her work can be found in the permanent collections of six National Parks or Monuments including: Zion (UT) Isle Royale (MI), Acadia (ME), Badlands (SD), John Day Fossil Beds (OR) and Agate Fossil Beds (NE). In addition, Kings Canyon National Park (CA) has her backcountry journal on permanent display in the Grant Grove Visitor Center.
