Description

Be inspired each day by this custom-framed original pastel "Late Summer Dawn" by local artist Judy Perry. (judyperryartct.com) Painting dimension: 8" x 10". Full Framed painting dimensions: 11" x 14" Judy's formal training began more than 30 years ago studying Fine Art and Special Education at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. Upon moving to Old Saybrook, CT in 1996 Judy began painting professionally. A near fatal head-on automobile collision with a drunk driver left her with an uncertain future in 2009. As part of Judy's rehabilitation program, she began painting ocean and marsh scenes reflecting the beauty of the East Coast Shoreline communities. Creating these scenes has demonstrated tremendous healing properties. Judy calls them her “healing waters” paintings. She strives to make an emotional connection through her work, to move an individual in such a way that her creation becomes a part of them. Each time a person responds to Judy's work in that way she realizes why she paints. ”Perry has the unique ability to capture the mood, character, or underlying nature of a person or setting developing her painting from there. She moves beyond painting parts and forms, and manages to paint a true snapshot of the essence in that instant.” Leah Lopez Schmalz: Arts Writer, Harbor News.
