Oregon Country Fair 2026 Poster Artist

A longtime fixture of the Oregon Country Fair, I began working at Blazing Salads in the mid-’80s and have eagerly returned every year since. After decades of running a beloved food booth, I am delighted and honored to have been selected as the 2026 poster artist—a lifelong dream come true.

I played with themes of intentional whimsy to explore the playful nature of the Country Fair.

Here is an early draft of the poster as well as some other concepts, and dimensional wood art and stickers I created, as I explored the vision for the 2026 poster art.
