My desire to be an artist started young and was forbidden. I struggled for a long time and to claim my independence I had to fight closed minds, prejudice and end an abusive marriage. At the age of fifty I was finally able to start my new life as an artist. Now I still struggle against some closed minds, but this is what life is about. Now I win more than I lose and smile more than I cry, and I can finally say I am an artist.<br /><br />Each original design is created free-hand and woven bead to bead, one bead at a time with needle and thread. Each design's materials include glass beads, precious gems, precious metals and found objects and are woven with monofilament for extra strength. The inspiration for each is views of nature and the artist's imagination. Many of the weaves were developed by the artist. All designs are copyright of the artist.</span></strong></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5131786789850405350-1365635349785895002?l=wwwjudiwoodcom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Judith Woodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02244362916497177888noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131786789850405350.post-33240224602664553992009-07-27T05:20:00.000-07:002012-01-21T04:50:17.720-08:00<p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">2012</span></strong> </p><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Boca Raton Museum Art Show, 1/29-30, <a href="http://www.bocamuseum.org/">www.bocamuseum.org/</a></span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Arti Gras Fine Arts Festival 2012, Jupiter 2/18 - 20, <a href="http://www.artigras.org/">www.artigras.org/</a> </span></strong><br /></p><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Naples National Art Festival, 2/25-2/26, <a href="http://www.naplesart.org/">www.naplesart.org/</a></span></strong><br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Lake Wales Art Festival March 24 &amp; 25, <a href="http://www.lakewalesartscouncil.org/">www.lakewalesartscouncil.org/</a></span></strong></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5131786789850405350-3324022460266455399?l=wwwjudiwoodcom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Judith Woodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02244362916497177888noreply@blogger.com0
