About the Item

LOOK FOR FREE SHIPPING AT CHECKOUT Mario is a portrait by Judy Crowe that was just completed in 2022 Mario is an example of the the Impressionist painters that the artist most admires for their vibrant use of color and their individual brushwork. As it did for the impressionists, everyday subjects inspire Judy Crowe such as Mario who is the subject in this figurative painting. It’s quite a challenge to capture the feel of a time or place on canvas rather than a photo representation. Judy loved to draw as a child-mostly ladies in long beautiful dresses. At one point in time, she thought she might pursue clothes design as a career. Her mother passed away when she was 17 and after this experience she chose a sociology major in college. After having children of her own, Judy discovered painting. Judy began painting after a friend gave her lessons in her garage and afterward began taking classes from various artists. After a move to Houston, she began serious study and painting professionally. Having grown up in a home that did not value trips to museums or galleries, this was an entirely new adventure. Those few classes with a friend opened up the world of art for Judy. Artist's Statement I love the works of the Old Masters but the Impressionist painters are the painters I most admire for their vibrant use of color and their individual brushwork. As it did for the impressionists, everyday subjects inspire me. I love flowers and landscapes and appreciate the beauty of nature. It’s quite a challenge to capture the feel of a time or place on canvas rather than a photo representation. I’ve been featured in several national artists publications and have won many awards but while those honors are nice, the best reward ~ for me as an artist ~ is when a collector purchases a piece of work. My hope and goal is to add lasting value to the world we live in and perhaps capture a part of God’s wonderful creation to canvas. "My hope is to create a lasting representation of a moment in time that adds beauty and joy to the lives of others as much as possible. There is no greater compliment for me as an artist than to hear ~your work makes me happy."
