Watermark Reception and Talk with Exhibiting Artist Kent Estey

Watermark Art Center will host a reception for exhibiting artist Kent Estey on December 9 from 2 to 4 p.m.

Estey, a contemporary Native American artist, is an enrolled member of the White Earth Nation of Ojibwe in Northwestern Minnesota. Kent’s lineage includes many self-taught artists where black-ash basketry, beading, birch-bark, and fiber artistry were everyday occurrences in his home. Kent’s preferred art form is painting with oils, acrylics, and inks. Most often, his paintings are about land, sky, and water. His bold and bright colors reflect his feelings and emotions as he captures the beauty of his surroundings.
