Through accident or design, you've arrived at the website for Huckleberry Farm Studios. We are Deborah DeWit, artist, and Carl Vandervoort, filmmaker.
Please wander through the results of our 35 year love of image making, past and recent paintings, pastels, photographs, books and films. Here you will also be able to read about the ongoing restoration of Huckleberry Farm, the gone wild land and rustic but stately house we purchased in 2009. A project of creation and love, it is a central part of both our lives and our careers, and continues to inspire images and stories. I hope you enjoy visiting our world. Please contact me with questions or comments. I'd love to hear from you.
Exhibitions & Events
All winter I've been working on new paintings for a show at White Bird Gallery, opening this May. It coincides with the well known Cannon Beach Spring Unveiling Weekend when all the galleries host special events, music and openings of new art. If you are on the North Oregon Coast this May or June please stop by the gallery to see my latest work. If you can't make it, the paintings will be on view on the Recent Work page of this website once the show opens as well as on the White Bird Gallery website.
New Note Cards! Take a peek on the Note Cards and Reproductions page for six new blank cards of recent and earlier paintings.
Best Wishes,
Deborah and Carl

Huckleberry Farm
Go Back to where it all started...
In August of 2009 Carl and I visited the small beach town of Manzanita on the North Coast of Oregon where Carl had shared a holiday home for many years. On a whim, we took a slightly different route, heading further south from there to a place where Carl bought flowers at a roadside stand many times in the years before.
