2009 AlaskaOne Poster

A distinguished panel of artists and experts selected the painting titled My Funny Valentines by North Pole artist Madara Hill for the 2009 AlaskaOne poster.

Inspired by the Alaska landscape, Madara mixes wax, ink, powdered pigments, text or fabric with more conventional media while still using traditional Alaskan subjects. Madara uses vivid color to showcase this majestic trio of musk ox emblazoned across a whimsical field of color.

This enchanting oil and encaustic on canvas was chosen from over 60 submissions from artists throughout the state. Thank you to the all the Alaskan artists who submitted work and to the poster selection committee:

Annie Duffy - UA Museum of the North guest curator and artist
Dixon Jones – UAF Graphic Artist
Jessica Rayfield – Fairbanks Arts Association
Barbara Schuhmann –KUAC/AlaskaOne community enthusiast and artist
