Judy Warner art pieces use fiber. They are extremely electrifying. They express nature and all of the colors with organic shapes. These pieces put together really well. I would love to have one hanging up on the wall. They make a statement of their own. They combine what the person thinks together beautifully with the artist feelings. She wanted to add the body and mind of daily living to her work after years of doing other things. She takes her time making these pieces to be as gorgeous as they are. She delicately stitches them and puts bold shapes on them. “I have always been in awe of the power of nature to wordlessly invoke emotion and lift humans out of their egos into a state of true connectedness with others. Similarly, I have been fascinated with the ability of color and texture to both express and invoke emotion. In my art, I use the interplay of color, texture and design to achieve similar goals, as well as to make social statements and inspire centered states of being.” The pieces show a sense of nature throughout. Each piece expresses how the artist sees nature and her point of view. The vibrant colors that she uses for the art quilts are found in nature. The colors are not the ordinary colors that man has made up but the calm blues, warm reds, dull and bright yellows, dark, pale and bright greens all express nature fully. The traditional quilts show that even traditional quilts can still be used as decoration in homes even today. Kokyu Nage warm colors against the cool colors feel as if you are warm and cold at the same time. The picture looks like harsh wind coming in from the east or west. The Maui Dreams pieces express that you can dream about the sea ocean sunset and island. The colors she uses for each piece are contradicting which draws your eye to the bright colors then see the rest of the piece. The puzzle miniature piece does look like a puzzle that still needs some help on where to place all the pieces. The In Flight piece of nature color blue calms the mind and thinks about freeing it from whatever the person is doing. The Dream Lives On piece shows that whatever happens dreams do not end they will continue on the journey that they started on. http://judywarner.com/
