Judi Russell's Artistic Journey...Constantly Learning, experimenting and Painting!

About 25 years ago, I stepped away from my advertising agency to focus on creating art. My life goal is to encourage others to discover their creativity, to learn as much as possible about art techniques and to paint like crazy using color, shapes and patterns.

A great deal of my work is influenced by journal drawings, which are started by making marks on the page "WITH MY EYES CLOSED." I then open my eyes to look for images and shapes. Many of my paintings are inspired by these journal images.

Since selling my agency, I’ve spent the past 25+ years learning and experimenting with different media and techniques. My life journey into the world of creativity has been calming, meditative and fully entertaining!
