​Nuquist and Contemporary Hall Galleries:  ​Wendy Hackett-Morgen  
The TW Wood Gallery is pleased to present the work of Wendy Hackett-Morgen. 

Wendy Hackett-Morgen’s paintings, which border somewhere between abstract and realism, display her deep love and connection to horses from an early age. Her favorite artist was Henri Matisse. Wendy’s paintings of horses are somewhat reminiscent of Susan Rothenburg’s horse paintings, however, where Susan Rothenberg’s horses are tools for formal abstraction, Hackett-Morgen’s paintings and drawings explore abstraction while capturing the quiet attitude and movement of horses. 

Wendy Hackett-Morgen showed a facility for drawing and painting early, which developed under a supportive mentor at Mamaroneck High School in Westchester, NY. After 25 years in and around New York City, Wendy and her husband Michel moved so she could pursue her Masters of Fine Art at SUNY New Paltz, NY. This  helped her become the artist that she felt deeply drawn to be. Hackett-Morgan exhibited her work in Hudson, NY, London, England, and also was awarded two solo shows at the Kellogg-Hubbard Library, in Montpelier.
