Graduating from UC Irvine with a Bachelor's in Dance, my eclectic pursuit of art led me beyond dance, into pursuing new avenues of my artistic passion. As a dancer, I learned the importance of keeping a balance between discipline and true artistic freedom. As an artist, I continue to learn.   Following the three-dimensional world of dance, my explorations into two dimensions started with strengthening my artistic foundations: the human form. After many years exploring the 2-D art form, my father, an award-winning wood craftsman, inspired me to revisit my roots, I began to sculpt. Beginning a re-exploration into my three-dimensional desires, my bronze sculpting efforts earned multiple awards including; the acceptance into the First California Nation Sculpture Society’s Show in NYC and commissions.   I continue to work eclectically as an artist. Sculpting, oil painting and my kitty, Angel, all vie for equal time in my art studio.   Judy is a native of Southern California.
