| "Road Less Taken" by Judith Gay, watercolor |
Judith Gay is a local artist, residing in Clinton. As her mother was an accomplished painter, Judith was exposed to this craft at an early age. During her early adulthood, she painted mostly portraits using pastels. Judith chose a career in school psychology which left her little time to practice her art. After retiring six years ago, she renewed her interest in painting, but this time with watercolors. “I love the translucency, spontaneity and portability of watercolor, which make it perfect for plein air painting. I also love those “happy accidents” that occur when one color bleeds into another. Watercolor always maintains some mystery to me because you don’t always know how one color will react with another or for that matter, the paper.” Judith belongs to the Madison Art Society and the Connecticut Shoreline Artists plein air group. Her work has been accepted in the Madison Art Society’s juried shows at which she won an award. She has painted with David Dewey, Alvaro Castagnet, Tony Couch, Ted Nuttal and John Salminen.
