Her huge portraits of early Oregonians, both prominent and anonymous, were featured this fall in an exhibit titled Vampires of Oregon at the Portland Art Museum. Her Vampires and Wolf Men series is its own body of work, but all Fidler’s art has a haunted quality, which has led to numerous shows in Portland, Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Miami, and Tokyo. Fidler received a Laurels scholarship while attending Portland State, and now uses student art interns to help create her large works of art.
