s a shy child of the 1950's, Sivigny found her joy in observing rather than engaging with the world. Moving from New York City to Connecticut at age 11, the woods near her new home became her mysterious retreat to be explored, and a magical place which sparked her imagination. Childhood summers with her grandmother and great aunts on Shinnecock Bay at the east end of Long Island reinforced her deep connection to nature and the arts. Time spent with these women, each with their own creative gifts, influenced her imaginative and creative experiences at a young age. As a late bloomer, she began a full-time art practice at age 55 and has not looked back. 

Sivigny is an award-winning artist exhibiting her art since 2009. Her work has appeared in numerous juried statewide, regional, national, and international exhibitions. Selected juried group exhibitions include Atlantic Gallery, Chelsea, NYC; Bromfield Gallery-SOWA, Boston, MA; Museum of Encaustic Art, Santa Fe; Connecticut: New Britain Museum of American Art, Slater Memorial Museum, Mattatuck Museum, Mystic Museum of Art, Ely Center for Contemporary Art. 

Sivigny holds elected memberships in Connecticut Women Artists, West Hartford Art League, and New Haven Paint and Clay Club. Her work is part of the Museum of Encaustic Art, Santa Fe permanent collection.
