The Hautman Brothers have established themselves as America’s foremost family of wildlife artists. The three brothers have received numerous honors and awards, and have been a dominating presence in many state and national duck stamp competitions. They have received national accolades on television and National Public Radio, and from newspapers such as USA, The Washington Post, The Saturday Evening Post, as well as Time, Sports Illustrated, U.S. Art, and North American Hunter Magazine.

James Hautman’s artistry is featured in our “Companions” and “Coming Home” panels. In 1990, he became the youngest artist ever to win the prestigious Federal Duck Stamp Competition. He won again in 1995, when his mallard painting received a perfect 25 (first ever). His paintings have been displayed in the Oval Office of the White House, the Smithsonian Institution, the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum, and in public and private collections throughout the world.
