Judy Wilder Dalton and monthly meeting

Judy Wilder Dalton will be the Demonstrator at the Marshall Art League Meeting on Sunday-April 13, 2014. Social 1:30 p.m. (Kay Clement and the Coker's), Demo at 2:00 p.m. Business Meeting with election of Officers at 3:00 p.m. Here is a link to her website.

Judy Wilder Dalton: "Whether I am painting a bold and abstract painting on paper or canvas, painting a still life or landscape,or using the colors and textures of gemstones and wire, or working in clay, I find that art is a part of how we live. I hope that my art reflects how I see life......with great appreciation and gratitude! I believe there is a strong human response to color and it reflects and affects our moods. My painting begins with a broad wash of color and rythms . By adding layers of transparent washes, I establish a strong design structure and color harmony. Each layer reveals more forms and shapes. The use of lines and textures add intrigue and interest to the surface. At some point I may begin to sense metaphoric or figurative elements in the painting. However, my intention is to keep the elements universal and invite the viewer to experience it on an emotional level as well as visually. Even when I make a choice to use a subject such as a still life, landscape or figure, the elements of form, line, color and texture are my focus. I love the delicacy, vigor and beauty in them apart from the subject. My work has been exhibited in many national and international exhibitions and has won numerous awards, and can be found in private and public collections throughout the United States. My style is expressionist to impressionist with bold and vibrant colors. My mediums include but are not limited to pastel, watercolor, media and oil.
