Elevating Design Through Art, Nature, and Community
In the sunlit hills of Ellensburg, Washington, artist, designer, and curator Erin Oostra is quietly shaping a movement. Known for her impressionistic paintings of mountains, oceans, and landscapes, Erin isn’t just creating art—she’s inspiring people to reconnect with the natural world, bring that inspiration into their homes, and embrace mindful, intentional living.
Artist Erin Oostra
A New Chapter Rooted in Beauty and Possibility
Erin didn’t grow up in Ellensburg—she moved there seeking a beautiful home, bright skies, and fresh opportunities. What she found instead was a space that allowed her creativity to flourish and a community eager to embrace it. For Erin, design is inseparable from lifestyle: her art, her interiors, and her curation all reflect a return to natural elements, textures, and light, encouraging people to pause, unplug, and breathe.
Her paintings are more than decorative—they’re experiences. Inspired by the Pacific Northwest’s mountains and oceans, Erin uses bold strokes and fluid forms to capture the essence of a place. Her multidisciplinary approach, blending painting, digital collage, and murals, allows her to bring that inspiration into homes and businesses in ways that feel effortless yet intentional.

As an artist coming from Seattle, my daily views used to be of Mt. Rainier. These days as I look out from the windows of my new home in Central Washington, I see the Stuart Range. The range lies within the eastern extent of the Cascade Range just southwest of Leavenworth. I’m reminded each time I see these majestic statues that with every move in life, there’s new beauty to enjoy around every corner + you never know where you might end up.

May your perspective be larger than the view from the foothills.
When the way is flat and dull in times of gray endurance,
May your imagination continue to evoke horizons.
