About Judi

I was very preoccupied with arts and crafts as a young girl making paper dolls and their clothes, designing and sewing clothes for myself and my dolls and painting and drawing. As I grew into my teens, my focus was fashion design. 

For many years I worked with silver, making jewelry. More recently, however, I made beaded jewelry. I love the way metals, stones and crystals of many color and shapes complement and enhance each other. 

During my college years at the University of Bridgeport, I majored in Art Education.

For the past two years, I’ve been joyfully painting on Yupo, a synthetic paper made of polypropylene which offers a unique alternative to traditional watercolor papers. It has bright white, smooth surface and is non-absorbent. Colors lie on top of its surface producing vibrant effects. It’s very freeing as it creates rainbow effects and many other surprises.
