ARTISTIC ADVENTURES

Judy Woods graduated with a Diploma in Fine Arts from Otago Polytechnic in 1985. Having always wanted to be a professional artist, she taught for 16 years and then decided to devote her time to her own career in art and see what happened. Finally motivated by the passing of her father and feeling some urgency to pursue her passion, she began to paint.

In the beginning, Judy battled with self-belief and struggled to produce artwork that she was satisfied with. However, having developed a process of embarking on a painting adventure with every work and not worrying about the outcome, she is producing work that excites and surprises her. “It’s a much more enjoyable experience to create work that I’m happy with and this has helped me grow in confidence.”
