Sinikka Nogelo

My artwork is inspired by all of nature, from the daily beauty of Cape Ann, to the depth of human experience in a life blessed and humbled by the urge to create. When painting, I love color and playing with composition, and the surprising results of using materials in new ways. This year I took up Gelli printing and am delighting in combining those techniques with acrylic stain painting. I’ll be pleased to show you how it’s done when you visit my studio on Gloucester’s Cripple Cove.

Also on view will be two of my newer sculptures. I added sculpture to my practice a dozen or so years ago when the environmental statements I wanted to make cried out for 3D. For these works I most often use recyclables and found objects and, at times, paint. Selections from my sculptural work can be found in the book “Site Specific: 20 Years of Sculpture at Maudslay” by Joyce Zarins as well as on the Outdoor Sculpture at Maudslay website.
