Judy Knott

Judy Knott began painting in 2010 and received her Master Artist certification in 2016.  She has shown her work at Crocker Art Museum, Marin Museum of Contemporary Art, Museum of Northern California Arts and the California State Fair.  She has built her resume by competing in, and winning many awards in both local, national and international art shows.

Judy transitions easily between representational and abstract art.  When painting more abstract compositions she often lets collage lead the way and then begins the process of painting over and around pieces of paper and fiber.  In taking up the cold wax and oil mediums she has seen her subject matter expand to unexpected areas.  Her artwork has been called painterly, inventive, fun and colorful, with a little wit thrown in on the side.  “I want to have fun creating my art and for those who see it to have fun as well.  I hope viewers will do the same thing I do when I finish a painting—smile.”
