ARTIST’S STATEMENT

Judy strives to find something unique and eye-catching in her work. Sometimes the simplest patterns and designs speak the loudest for personal impact and impression. She loves to capture the faces of people in different cultures which reflect their personal life stories and emotions. She also enjoys “painting” a landscape through the natural colors and patterns made by Mother Nature. She enjoys travel and does most of her photographic work while traveling.
