A little bit about Judy Scott
Judy is a printed textile
designer based in Dundee. Scotland harbour villages and shores have been her
constant inspiration. Their bustling waterfronts are filled with incredible
colour combinations, organic shape, surface and form.
Blending traditional techniques
with digital imagery her work begins by capturing inspiration as a composition
using photography. This is then translated into
painted paper collage and expressive mark making, leading to bold placement
compositions.
I found Judy’s work to be very
inspiring especially when looking at decay. I loved her use of different
textures as part of a collage and how she sews into it to add detail. I have
referred to some of her wok when creating my own decay collage. Her use of negative
space as a border draws your eye to the details and the washed blue colour adds
a beautiful cool tone to the piece, I use quink ink to do something similar in
my own work.
Having never really done 3d designs
before I thought Judy’s sculptural pieces to be extremely unique and exciting. The
use of wrapping bundles of yarn creates a distinctive design.
