JUDITH DALOZZO

Born in Adelaide in 1971, Judith’s childhood consisted of bohemian treks around Australia with her parents; “The stark light and vivid colours of nature were my initial inspirations” she contemplates. Judith inherited her parent’s talent for fine art and cultivated her interest with further travels to the United States, Canada and Europe.

Judith attended the “Ecole Superieur D'Art Plastique et Visuel” in Mons, Belgium where she accepted a scholarship along with a five year living grant, an enormous privilege for an up and coming artist from Australia.

Judith first picked up a brush at age nine and beagn her career as a professional artist at just 20 years of age, when she realised painting was her true passion. Judith has always drawn inspiration from still life and has gained her recognition as a prominent and collectible still-life painter, both in Australia and overseas. Her work hangs in offices of corporate giants including American Express, MLC Insurance, Mercedes Benz and by the royal family of Abu Dhabi.

Judith now works from her studio on the beautiful Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia painting for at least one major exhibition a year since 1991.

With subtle use of colour and a deep respect for the technical skills of drawing and painting, Judith creates paintings which evoke a sense of tranquillity and balance. Judith primarily focuses on subjects such as still life oil paintings on canvas and ink nude drawings on paper. Judith has a talent for exceptional use of subject matter, composition and colour merging. Her work exudes a quality of freshness, youth and vitality. She also has an innate talent for being able to harmonize the traditional with the modern. Her talents aren’t just restricted to canvas, discovering her versatility in ceramic and sculpture, has proved she excels in all mediums.

She says this about her work:

"For me, still life is everywhere we look. It is the clock face of time and culture. From the fresques at Pompeii, to Bruegel's interiors or Gaugin's fruit. .... we understand it and recognise it. I take objects that are often overlooked, but we see everyday and bring them to life for all of us to admire.

My inspiration is to capture the quiet, simple, timeless objects of our daily life....."

"I try to impart a sense of harmony and balance through my work. My aim is to paint pictures that people can live with and look at with increasing pleasure - to capture a feeling or a moment in time which then becomes timeless... the colours and textures of fruit, the reflection on glass, table tops catching the morning or afternoon light, cherries falling off the tablecloths..""

And if my paintings evoke in the viewer a sense of tranquillity and balance, then I’m satisfied and ready to start again....
