Judy received her training at Newton Abbot College Of Art and then Goldsmiths College London. In 1998 she left her position as a senior lecturer in Art and Design at Exeter College to become a full-time practising artist. After several successful solo and group exhibitions she now has work in private collections world-wide. In 2003 she was awarded a substantial grant by South West Arts to stage an innovative, multimedia exhibition at the Thelma Hulbert Gallery in Honiton.
Having spent her formative years living by the sea in South Devon it is perhaps not surprising that she draws inspiration from the ever changing moods of the sea and the West Country coastline. Her expressive, mixed media paintings and assemblages, which swing between abstraction and a more literal approach, demonstrate her absorption with the way in which natural forces and processes shape, colour, oxidise, bleach and in particular texture both natural and man-made objects.
