Traveling exhibit is at library

The University of Wyoming Art Museum will showcase the Joel Ostlind Traveling Exhibition through Dec. 24 at the Campbell County Public Library.

Ostlind, a self-taught artist, was born in Wyoming. He says he lives and works to interpret the things he values here, such as the light, the land and the people who move through it. The exhibit’s subjects are cowboys, horses and cattle in the open lands of the West.

He uses intaglio print-making processes of etching, drypoint, aquatint, sugar lift, lithography, as well as monoprint in his artwork.

Ostlind was born in Casper and lives near the Big Horn Mountains in Wyoming. He has degrees in soil science and ranch management and has worked cow camps in three states before he became a full-time artist. He draws on his cowboy life experience as the subject of his images.

Ostlind was the featured artist of the Coors Western Art Show in 2002 and 2005, and had a solo exhibition, in 2004, at the Bradford Brinton Museum in Big Horn.
