ABOUT
THE ARTIST:
Peter
Oberdorf is a Designer and owner of Uppervillage Brand Communications
in Portland, Oregon. His family first moved to Bend, Oregon
in 1964 and then to Salem. His formative years found him spending
a lot of time in the wilderness, including 7 summers fighting
forest fires for the Department of Forestry. He graduated
from Oregon State University with a degree in design before
heading south to spend the first 14 years of his career in
the San Francisco Bay Area. He returned to Oregon in 1996
to establish his company. Peter continues to frequent remote
forested areas, considering them to be the only places to
find quiet renewal of mind and spirit.
The
sasquatch series of illustrations, shown courtesy of oregonbigfoot.com,
are part of an on-going effort Peter devotes to developing
accurate depictions of these still mysterious beings. He maintains
a strict adherence to rendering just those features consistent
with reports gathered from the most reliable eye witnesses
and by studying select photographs and videos. As we look
toward the day that a completely clear and indisputably verifiable
photo or video is finally achieved, his hope is that, more
information will be gathered to increase the accuracy of each
new illustration so that they come to represent a convincing
embodiment of what we know to be true to date. Constructive
comments pertaining to accuracy are always welcome from anyone
providing credible information.
