I have spent most of the last twenty-five years in my studio. Life goes in and out of it, but the tone of the work, the mark-making, as such, remains instinctive. It juxtaposes differently, assumes more complex positions in space, and shows new colors.
It enriches as life does. And like life, the negative space ebbs and flows and the touch in many ways grows more delicate and sure. The colors more vivid with experience. It layers like the years and the search for humanity continues. The figures come together over time and reflect back to me like the people I have known or hope to meet.
About the artist: Judy Zimbert has exhibited her work in galleries in Los Angeles and New York. Her artwork modernizes post-war expressionism, which influenced her as did weekly visits to the Cleveland Museum of Art as a child. Her art process involves applying and removing multiple layers of oil paint until figures, recently ballerinas or their essences, emerge.
