Jude Lobe
The idea of us not just being a part of nature, but connected in some way through a primal web of energy intrigues me and feels calming. It makes such sense to me. How else can one explain how we feel the same awe when watching a sunset, or feel anguish when we see someone in pain, or get teary-eyed at a wedding.
It’s these recognizable but intangible feelings and emotions that I want to convey in my artworks. Sometimes they will take the shape of a familiar scene, other times they may be exhibited as an abstract. I consider myself a contemporary mixed media artist, working in cold wax, oil, encaustic, enamel, pottery and pottery with encaustic. My process is a method of building and deconstructing. I like mixing mediums and I love textures, which becomes a metaphor for how all things in the universe are interwoven and intertwined.
I have been involved with art in one way or another throughout my life. Presently, I work in my studio built by my husband. The studio has easels, enameling kiln, pottery kiln, pottery wheel, an assortment of paints and mediums, and many other items that encourage me to create.

ART: It's good for your health
The next time you are having a stressed day, take some time off and go to a local art gallery and enjoy the art. When you walk back out the door, I bet you will find yourself in much better spirits and able to handle whatever it is you need to do.
Our physiology is deeply effected by feelings and emotion. Try to keep a balance of good feelings in close proximity to yourself during the day. Perhaps a small painting on your desk, or larger one on the wall. Maybe a piece of art at home in your kitchen to look at before you walk out the door. Or a calming artwork on the wall of your bedroom to send you off to a peaceful night’s rest.

I paint because I love the process of creating, allowing the voice within me to emerge through spontaneous expression. It’s like consciously dreaming, letting thoughts come and go and grow while time stands still. My landscape paintings are my way of preserving the endangered landscape. When I create a work, it has stirred something inside me. Sometimes it’s a dramatic shadow from a tree stretching across the grass, or a pond early in the morning glistening as if it is waking up and jumping for joy. Sometimes it’s the juxtaposition of inanimate objects that relate to me something more human, like two old and worn boats side by side seeming more like old friends remembering younger and more active times. Although my landscape paintings rarely have people in them, there is always something very human about them.
