Judith lives in New Brunswick and attended the University of Victoria in 1988 to graduate as a mature student at the age of 49 with her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree (Honours).

Judith spends every summer and fall at her home at East Grand Lake in New Brunswick to paint and have exhibitions. Recently she has been painting East Coast landscapes with old growth forests and dramatic skies. Her passion for detail and love of the outdoors has rapidly placed her among the most sought after landscape artists.

She is an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, Island Illustrators, and the Community Arts Council. Her paintings are featured in many galleries and juried shows and are included in private collections in Canada, United States, Australia and England.
