This Month at Cascadia Art Museum:

Krister Eide

March 20th, 2025

Krister Eide is an award-winning wildlife painter who enjoys capturing beauty in the natural world and supporting conservation and education through his work as a member of the Artists for Conservation and Pilchuck Audubon. While in college, Krister worked at a wildlife rehabilitation center, taking care of injured birds and small mammals and helping return them to the wild. Krister received his BFA in Illustration / Children’s Book Illustration at the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design, in addition to studying fine art at the Gage Academy and local professional artists like Michelle Waldele-Dick and Michael Orwick.

He often can be found painting and selling works at Graphite Art Center in downtown Edmonds, and he is a member of regional and national groups like Puget Sound Group of Northwest Artists (Signature Member), Plein Air Artists of Washington, and Oil Painters of America. Last spring, he was honored to win First Prize in the Norwescon Art Show, the Pacific Northwest’s premier science fiction and fantasy convention. Krister also has two middle-grade graphic novel pitches under submission with his agent, Anna Olswanger.
