My Destiny, Oil Painting

2019

Artist Comments
Impasto bouquet of roses, peonies and lilies. "I wanted to paint a vase of dreamy flowers with lots of whites," explains Judy Mackey. "The title stems from having painted a lot of flowers, though I'm actually a little eclectic in my desire to painting different subject matter. However, I feel like it's my destiny to paint flowers."

About the Artist
Originally from Japan, Judy Mackey embarked upon her professional artistic career over a decade ago after connecting with a local artist. He taught her how to skillfully wield a palette knife instead of a paintbrush, which gave rise to her own stylistic development. Judy uses this technique to create heavy texture. Her medium of choice is oil paint, with which she enjoys mixing and creating new colors with limited pigments. Her work glows with sweet simplicity in a painterly, impressionistic style.
