Artist's Statement
My goal
as a contemporary impressionistic realist painter is to create artwork
that portrays the beauty of our natural creation faithfully and honestly
to the best of my ability and to hopefully stir memories or emotion
within my viewer. I strive not for a photorealistic duplication of
the scene before me but to creatively and beautifully depict life and
light as I see it regardless of subject matter. My goal is to
continually reach for growth and vision, and with God's help, to be the
best that I can be.
Judy
began painting with Lindy Daly of Houston in 1990 and grew to love the
process of oil painting. Since that time, she has taken workshops with
notable professional artists such as Dan Gerhartz, Scott Christensen,
Scott Burdick, Quang Ho, Ted Goerscher, Gay Faulkenberry and others.
She is familiar with painting the Texas Landscape but has traveled the
US painting other locales as well. Texas is her home though, a first
love in painting the landscape. Judy has garned some impressive
credentials such as "Collector's Choice" and "Artist to watch" by
Southwest Art Magazine. She has written for and was published with
International Artist Magazine. She won the William Schnieder Award of
Excellence at the National Oil Painter's of America in Palm Dessert,
California and most recently was awarded "best body of work" at Plein
Air Texas, 2007
