Judy Hall Stapes - contemporary painter

Artist Statement:

Art finds expression for something real and unknown.

The artist brings forth images from the collective unconscious to communicate and remind us who we most essentially are and what we are connected to.

Art has the power to stimulate, provoke, heal, evoke deep emotions, open us up to a wider and deeper consciousness, and touch our inner knowing. It is for healing, for magic and mystery, for bringing together those parts of ourselves desiring to be whole, for hope, for fun.

My work tries to make spirit visible, tangible, to touch the spiritual yearnings of the viewer and to evoke strong emotions. It is a statement of my way of life in this time and place.
