     The Rogue Gallery is honored to present this retrospective of Nancy Jo Mullen. Her work includes various forms of printmaking, encaustics, and collages. Many of her works are engagingly playful and rhythmic, while others maintain a playful dance in an elegant composition. All are a delight for the viewer.

Nancy Jo studied Drawing & Painting at Otis Art Institute/Parsons School of Design and the University of Kentucky. She holds a Master of Fine Art, Painting, and Printmaking from the University of Oregon. She was a printmaking instructor at SOU. Nancy Jo was a featured artist on PBS Oregon Art Beat. Her work is in the permanent printmaking collection at the Portland Art Museum. Nancy Jo has been active in the Rogue Gallery & Art Center for five decades serving as the executive director, board member, board president, and teacher for youth and adults.
