About the Artist

Roxanne Everett was an Artist-in-Residence at Isle Royale National Park from June 27th to July 15th, 2023. She is a contemporary landscape painter. Influenced by the Canadian Group of Seven, her work focuses on the ecology and scenic quality of the natural environment. Roxanne's subject matter comes directly from her own prior experience either as a National Park Backcountry Ranger or as a wilderness recreational user. Her objective is to transport viewers to these locations and urge them to forge deeper relationships with the land while renewing any connections from their own previous experiences. With a culture that is increasingly marginalized to urban areas, Roxanne's paintings share the importance and beauty of the natural landscape with viewers, including with those that may not otherwise be able to experience such a place first hand. By giving the natural landscape, especially wilderness areas, more visibility to the general public, she hopes to generate increased interest and stewardship.
