Painter, Sculptor

Dreams and interpreted images inspire the artist Judy Welch. Once colour and form appear on the canvas, she captures not only light and shade in its layered nuance, but artistic narrative – each painting tells a story. An artist from the age of seven, Judy counts Ida Kohlmeyer and Helen Frankenthaler as her inspiration and aspiration; over the years her work has evolved to reflect Symbolism, Fauvism, Surrealism and the Abstract.

In 2001, Judy moved to Mexico from New Orleans, where she had produced a television show utilizing the creative talents of theater students; she was also active in the New Orleans art scene. She continues to paint in acrylic and oil on canvas and also works in paper sculpture. Of her work in Mexico, Judy says, “I feel an affinity for Latin American art because, regardless of technique or era, it is all about narrative. Mexico has a rich visual history.”
