Martha Pettigrew is a 1972 graduate of UNL, holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with emphasis on painting and printmaking. Formerly an illustrator for the Nebraska State Museum, she has worked as a professional fine artist since 1992, mainly as a sculptor. The recipient of many awards and commissions, her bronze figurative pieces are in numerous city, corporate, and museum collections, and in several public parks and sculpture gardens.
Returning to painting after a stay in Mexico in 2002, Martha's style reflects a strength and directness reflective of her persona. Her subject matter includes barns and grain elevators and, more recently, large abstract pieces based on land, water, and geological formations.
