Rosalind
Oesterle graduated from Skidmore College with a major in art and
continued her education at Columbia University studying drawing and
painting. She also attended subsequent workshops with Ed Whitney, Claude
Croney, Don Andrews and other well-known watercolorists.
Rosalind started painting
in watercolor when she and her husband and daughter spent summers in
northern Vermont. Her rural themes and nature studies developed during
this time and continued to be the focus of her work for many years. Her
knowledge and appreciation of nature and particularly wildflowers
produced paintings portraying accurate detail with fluid, flowing
abstract backgrounds.
Mrs. Oesterle’s paintings
have been exhibited in the juried shows of the American Watercolor
Society, the Hudson Valley Art Association, The Catharine Lorillard
Wolfe Art Club, The National Arts Club, The Salmagundi Club and
Audubon Artists. She is a member of the Katonah Museum Art Association
and a Juried Member of the Hudson Valley Art Association, The Catharine
Lorillard Wolfe Art Club and a Signature Member of the American
Watercolor Society.
Her work has been shown in
many galleries including the Blue Heron Gallery in Wellfleet, MA in
which she was an original exhibitor. Her paintings have been reproduced
since 1980 and have been sold throughout the United States and Europe.
Among her many awards Oesterle is the recipient of First Place in
Watercolor at the Mystic Art Festival, First Place in Watercolor at the
Westport Art Festival and in 2006 she received the Best in Show award at
the Mystic Art Festival. In 2007 and 2008 she received the Best in
Watercolor award at The Glastonbury Art Show and was the featured artist
in the 2007 Summer Edition of The Armonk Magazine.
In 2009 she received the
First Place in Watercolor award at the Armonk Outdoor Art Show and First
Place in Watercolor at the Mystic Art Festival in 2010.
During
the last few years, the abstract or non-objective aspect of Rosalind
Oesterle’s work continues to dominate as a design theme with only a
suggestion of the original subject matter. The resulting artistic
expression allows both artist and viewer new dimensions of discovery and
communication.
