Juicy female figures, landscape and abstract are the images Judy is working with currently, with inventive use of color being a main focus. Since moving to New Mexico, her palette has changed to include many of the more subtle hues of the desert and mountains. They offer interesting juxtapositions with the brilliant hues of her original palette.
