About the Artist: Joe Hautman's first experience as a professional artist came when he won his first Federal Duck Stamp contest in 1991. He found himself visiting President George Bush in the oval office, and receiving honors for his artistic achievements before he had sold a single painting!
Ten years later, after winning several state contests as well as his second Federal competition, Joe has earned his reputation as one of the top artists in his field. Joe comes from an artistic family of seven children. His mother, Elaine, is an accomplished painter, and his brothers Jim and Bob are also multiple winners of the Federal Duck Stamp contest.
From an early age Joe loved drawing and painting, but he soon became fascinated by the sciences as well. His artistic talents were forced to take a back seat while he concentrated on his studies, earning a Ph.D. in Physics from the Univ. of Michigan.
In the midst of an active research career, with over 25 publications to his name, Joe's first Federal Duck Stamp contest victory provided all the incentive he needed to return professionally to his first passion. He now paints full-time and says he finds painting as challenging, exciting ans satisfying as he did his scientific research.
Joes lives and paints in his home state of Minnesota. His work features waterfowl and a variety of North American animals. Inspired by travels to India, he has also painted tigers and other Asian wildlife. The accuracy of detail and the naturalistic settings in his work reflect his scientific backgrounnd, as well as a reverence for wildlife and their habitat.
