Sitka artist Norman Campbell has lived and drawn Southeast Alaska since 1982. Originally from Oregon, Campbell graduated from Southern Oregon College with an Applied Design degree.In November of 2011 he completed a 30′ by 4′ pen and ink drawing. The images were taken from his thoughts and experiences from his daily life during this time. The drawing will be installed in the expanded Kettleson Library located in Sitka.
Currently, he works with pen and ink to which he most often adds watercolor to augment the line work. Much of his recent work is invented landscape drawn from his love of Southeast Alaska.
Campbell served for seven years on the Alaska State Council on the Arts and has participated in several Artist in the Schools residencies. He teaches classes at the University of Alaska Southeast and the Sitka FineArts Camp for both adults and children.
