Ingeborg V. Seaboyer

I am a lifelong resident of Derry NH.  My art education has stretched from Pinkerton Academy to the University of New Hampshire, to the Manchester Institute of Arts & Sciences where I began to explore Pen & Ink drawing in 1993.  My work draws on a lifetime in fields and forests of New England; truly viewing those rural landscapes from the ground up.

As a forester with the State of New Hampshire Division of Forests & Lands, my pen and ink drawing has turned into something of a second career.  I have illustrated three books: “Selecting Trees for Urban Landscape Ecosystems”, “Good Forestry in the Granite State” Vols 1 & 2, and provided most of the illustrations for New Hampshire Project Learning Tree’s “Focus on New Hampshire Forests”.  Additionally, I have completed commissions for UNH Cooperative Extension, the New Hampshire Timberland Owners Association, the New Hampshire Tree Farm Committee, the New Hampshire Department of Agriculture, Innovative Natural Resource Solutions, the New England Society of American Foresters and numerous individuals.

Early on I began combining watercolor and colored pencil with my pen & ink, as well as working in watercolor alone, to create my botanical, wildlife, buildings and New England landscapes illustrations. I take part in local art shows and exhibits each year and have receive recognition from the Beaver Brook Association, the Greater Derry Arts Council, the Greater Salem Artists Association, the Chelmsford Artists Association, the Londonderry Arts Council and at the annual Westford Regional Art Event.

Since September 2011, I have been part of the traveling art exhibit “The Road Not Taken – Artistic Interpretations of the Poetry of Robert Frost” with friends and fellow artists Corinne Dodge and Judy Krassowski.
