Martha Pettigrew
Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, Martha Pettigrew graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art from the University of Nebraska. Later she served as scientific illustrator for that institution's natural history museum, where she often illustrated relics from western indigenous tribes. Her study of the sculptors Henry Moore, Constantin Brancusi and Isamu Naguchi influenced her style as well. Pettigrew is the recipient of many awards, and recent exhibitions include the National Sculptors Association's "Everyday Life", held at the National Arts Club, New York, and the 103rd Catherine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club's juried exhibition held at the National Arts Club, also in New York. Recent commissions include a monumental-size horse for the J. P. Morgan Company, New York, and a one-and one-quarter life-size buffalo for the Irvine Company, Irvine, California. |
