Born and raised in Alaska, contemporary artist Kurt Jacobson has spent his life drawing inspiration from the vast natural beauty of his home state. An avid outdoorsman who spent decades camping, fishing, and hunting across the region, Jacobson eventually channeled his deep intimacy with the landscape into professional fine art, entering the competitive arena full-time in 1998. Based in Anchorage, he specializes in oil paintings created en plein air and is deeply committed to the local creative community. He has served as the president of the Alaska Artists Guild, was twice selected to design the official Alaska Railroad print, and has been recognized in many other ways as an Alaska-based artist.

A c.1994 signed and numbered 93/150 Artist Proof entitled "Seascape Rookery" by Alaska artist Edwin M. Tussey (1959-2024), showcasing a vast coastal seascape set against a dramatic sunset background. Dozens of Alaska shorebirds perch and nest upon the rocky shoreline where ocean waves crash and churn into white foam against the rocks. The dark rock formations protrude from the sea against a wide sky filled with dense, horizontal cloud layers illuminated by golden and deep orange light from the low sun on the horizon. Ed Tussey was a celebrated, award-winning wildlife artist who spent decades capturing the coastal, marine, and interior landscapes of Alaska. Before launching his full-time art career in Tussey's Fine Arts around 1985, he spent twenty years commercial fishing throughout remote Alaskan waters, which allowed him to observe marine life and rugged terrains firsthand. Settling on the Kenai Peninsula in Homer, Alaska, he became renowned for his realistic paintings and self-published limited-edition print series that depicted native species like whales, bald eagles, and sea lions with extreme, impeccable detail. His highly collectible portfolio earned him deep local recognition, including commissions for the 1996 Alaska State Medallion and official posters for the Kodiak Crab Festival.

Over his decades-long career in Alaska, Kolstad has served as President of the Alaska Watercolor Society, operated a dedicated gallery in downtown Anchorage, and received major design commissions from prominent local institutions like the Alaska Railroad, Alaska Magazine, the U.S. Air Force, and various cruise lines.

A few examples include Alpine Forget-Me-Not, Wild Iris, Fireweed, Arctic Lupine, Chocolate Lily, Wild Geranium, Coastal Paintbrush, and Shooting Star. Richard Wilson "Toby" Tyler was a cornerstone of the art community in Homer, Alaska. Born in New York and raised in California, Tyler moved to Alaska in the mid-20th century, where he spent decades documenting the state's rugged, pristine landscapes and unique flora using acrylics, watercolors, and pen and ink. Based out of his home on Kachemak Bay, his artwork deeply reflected his immediate surroundings. He became highly celebrated for his meticulous, detailed botanical compositions as well as his sweeping scenic views of local bays, mountain ranges, and churches.

A signed and numbered 10/56 Artist Proof entitled "Reaching the Campsite" by Alaska artist Fred Machetanz (1908-2002). The work depicts the captain and crew of an oomiak (skinboat) reaching their campsite for whale hunting off the coast of Arctic Alaska. It is spring, the time bowhead whales migrate north and surface among the ice floes which have begun to break up, and the site selected for camping is on the edge of land-locked ice about two miles offshore. The captain and crew are poised to jump and pull their oomiak up on the ice. Extending from the prow of the oomiak is the whaling harpoon, and a float fashioned from an inflated sealskin may be seen among the supplies and will be attached by line to the harpoon to mark where the whale sinks below the surface. In this particular area near Point Hope, as many as a dozen whaling crews may keep watch at quarter-mile intervals and one such camp may be seen across the water. A canvas windbreak protects campers from occasional bitter winds, and though it is a cold and exhausting time, hunters are sustained by hot meals of fried dough, seal meat, and muktuk (whale blubber). Numbered lower left and hand-signed in graphite lower right by the artist. Matted and framed with the original artist's biography and information about the artwork affix en verso as photographed. The dramatic colors of Alaska are the colors of Machetanz's palette: The pinks and golds of northern sunlight, the blues and greens of snow and ice, the grays and creams of polar bear fur. Machetanz credited his classic transparent oil technique with capturing "Alaska's kaleidoscope of color" and he painted portraits of an Alaska in what he called its "romantic period" between the gold rush and the oil boom. He chronicled the traditional Eskimo lifestyle as it was rapidly changing but not yet vanished, and the constantly changing resplendency of the Alaskan landscape. One of Alaska's preeminent artists, Machetanz traveled a long trail from his first one-man show in 1961 through his passing in 2002. His paintings and stone lithographs have been exhibited around the world, included in numerous permanent collections and published in multiple books. His awards range from 1977 Alaskan of the Year and a seat in the Alaska Press Club Hall of Fame to three honorary doctorates. Machetanz pictured the Alaska he first encountered in the village of Unalakleet; it was there that he first established a bond with the land and its people that has lasted nearly fifty years. As the patterns of light and dark and the luminous effect of his Renaissance glazing techniques became the trademarks of a Machetanz painting, the spirit of Machetanz has remained a trademark of Alaska. He once said "If anyone viewing my work has felt the beauty, the thrills and the fascination I have known in Alaska, then I have succeeded in what I set out to do." The work measures approximately 29" x 41" overall.

A signed and numbered 86/750 print by Alaska artist Charlen Jeffery Satrom (1939-2020) entitled "September in Alaska". The work depicts a vast, sweeping Alaskan tundra landscape showcasing the vibrant transition into autumn. In the foreground, rich fields of low-lying vegetation are blanketed in deep shades of crimson, rust, and gold. A wide, braided river valley stretches across the midground, leading the eye toward a towering, snow-dusted mountain range that dominates the upper horizon under a soft, overcast sky. The cool tones of the distant jagged peaks contrast sharply with the warm foliage below, capturing the immense and rugged beauty of the northern Alaskan wilderness. Charlen Jeffery Satrom was an accomplished painter who dedicated over forty years to capturing the essence of the northern wilderness after moving to Alaska in 1976. Based first in Anchorage and later in Wasilla, she traveled extensively across the state to research and document dynamic landscapes, native wildlife, and local portraiture. Her extensive career includes prominent murals in several rural Alaskan villages, as well as official commissioned portraits of major political figures which are preserved in civic spaces across the country and the Alaska State Capitol.

A signed and numbered 132/1049 print by Alaska artist Charles Gause (b.1955) entitled "Alone in the Great Land". The expansive scene depicts a vast, snow-covered Alaskan mountain valley and a frozen valley framed by towering peaks and spruce trees. A lone musher and his sled dog team traverse the Iditarod trail on their way to claim the prize. The artist was commissioned as the Official Fundraising Artist for the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race for a 10-year campaign creating a unique commemorative wilderness print each year to honor participating mushers and their dog teams. This 1993 print is part of that collection. Charles Gause discovered his passion for the arts during his youth in Yakima, Washington. Before his relocation to Alaska, Gause pursued formal education in design and art history at Yakima Valley College. In the spring of 1975, he traveled north to Fairbanks and found employment on the North Slope for the Trans-Alaska pipeline project. Seeking a lifestyle that allowed for time and inspiration in his creative work, he left the slope and eventually settled in Eagle River with his wife, Joyce, where he focused on capturing realistic Alaskan landscapes, wilderness themes, and the Iditarod trail. Numbered lower left and signed lower right by the artist, and further signed lower center by former Iditarod musher, Martin Buser (b.1958), who has claimed the Iditarod prize four times, in 1992, 1994, 1997, and 2002.
