Name: Judith Carducci,
PSA
Bio: Judith Carducci retired as a
social worker and then resumed the interest in drawing and painting that she had
since childhood. She studied watercolour with Mel Chevers and oil painting with
C.A. Brodeur until she was in her mid-20s, and later studied with Daniel E.
Greene and other nationally known artists. She quickly established herself as one of today’s best portrait painters. Her
paintings have won Best of Show, Award of Excellence, First Place, Award of
Merit, and purchase awards at international and national shows and competitions.
As well as being an internationally
recognised portrait painter, Judith teaches workshops in portraiture, pastel,
plein air landscape, anatomy for portraitists and still life by invitation.
Judith reminisces about her own experience as a student: “When I was a child,
my art teacher had me copy 'Holbein Heads' - drawings by the great
Hans Holbein, portraitist to the court of England's King Henry VIII. That was
the beginning of my lifelong fascination with portraiture and my enduring
respect for Holbein's genius. Even now, my teacher's voice, as she showed me
the fine points of his skill, echoes in my ear: 'Look for the lost and
found!'"
In addition to Who's Who in American
Art, Judith Carducci is listed in Who's Who in America, Who's Who of
