Closing the chapter on a season of family illnesses and loss, Judi T. Dudley is now channeling all of the accompanying emotions, feelings, and thoughts into abstract works of art in order to express the reality of being alive and well!A California native having recently struck out across the country, the self-taught artist has landed for a stint in Augusta, GA, armed with acrylic paints and imagination.Judi’s interests have always been artistic, as she has previously been involved in activities and careers ranging from cosmetology to fashion design, styling, and editorials. This current shift of interests seems to come as the natural progression of someone who believes in the beauty of all things being the most important aspect of what she consumes and creates.Having participated in the Raw Artist National Arts Drive in 2020 and then in Art Basel Miami Beach 2022 ExpoMetro Mobile billboard display, Judi is excited and well engaged in spreading her wings to fly through the new life she is building for herself.To view more artworks by Judi, please visit her website: www.ThouArtJuD.com

Visual Art:Often coupling it with wood, glass or semi-precious beads, I use acrylic paint as a means to glorify the beauty that I see in the world around me. While my main focus is abstract art, I am currently exploring through a new series that is being created to express the deep emotional experience of being human.Literary Art:Through the use of Haiku poetry, an ancient Japanese art form that uses a 5-7-5 syllable per line pattern to create poetry, I have published two books that are currently available on Amazon.com:“575 Street: Haikus Are Hard”“When I Call On His Name: Haikus For Worship”
