About Judith Levins:

Judy knew from the beginning that art was her passion and her place in the world."I see beauty in our world and try to convey that with brush, paint and paper. My medium is watercolor and I express with it in an energetic, bold manner. Art is a form of communication and by painting my world and having other feel something when viewing it, we have shared a moment together and that is a wonderful thing."

Judith's art education began at home with her mother's love of art instilled and nurtured in her children. Judy contined her passion for art at The New England School of Art & Design, where she majored in Fashion Illustration. After graduation she taught at The School of Fashion Design while she pursued her freelance art career.

Life has taken her up and down the East coast, currently putting down roots in Cazenovia NY, a charming lake community tucked into the pastoral landscape of Central New York. She has volunteered as President of the Cazenovia Watercolor Society (CWS) for three years, as Secretary for two and serves as social media/website Chairperson. She keeps her brushes busy by joining the Adirondack Plein Air group, Mountain Air Painters, on weekly painting adventures as well as participating in local plein air group.

 

Judith teaches her love of watercolor in her studio at the historic Atwell Mill in Cazenovia NY as well as with The Hamilton Center for the Arts in Hamilton NY. She holds workshops with CazArts, and travels to watercolor societies & art groups for demonstrations/workshops. Students have described Judy's love of the medium as contagious. She says she wants her teaching to plant little watercolor seeds, then to sit back and watch her students bloom.

 

Judy is an award winning artist that has gained Signature Gold status with the Central New York Watercolor Society (CNYWS), as well as filling a chair on their 2017 -23 Board of Directors. She sells her work from her Gallery/Studio and exhibits with the numerous groups she participates in throughout Central New York.
