Sallie Wolf

Sallie Wolf is an observer; she uses her training in anthropology to observe the world around her. She uses her artist’s eye to translate her observations into paintings, installations, books, music, and workshops that make sense of the data. The Moon Project grew directly out of a few casual notations in her journals which developed into an artist’s obsession. She also writes books, relying on her curiosity to guide her. Her most recent book, The Robin Makes a Laughing Sound: A Birder’s Observations, re-released by Imagine!, an imprint of Charlesbridge Publishing, is a collection of bird observations told in poetry, lists, questions, notes, and sketches. Sallie Lives in Oak Park, IL, where her garden is devoted to attracting birds. She works out of Calypso Moon Studio in the Oak Park Arts District. She spends part of every summer in Center Sandwich, New Hampshire, hiking, swimming, sketching, and enjoying her extended family. Her resulting artwork is represented locally by Patricia Ladd Carega Gallery in Center Sandwich. Sallie and her husband, Chuck, a retired lawyer, are determined to travel the world as quickly and thoroughly as possible, while Sallie documents each trip in her journals. Source
