 "Enduring Legacies"  

"Painting can be taught,  however, the gift of inspiration,  dedication and passion are within."     Judith Durr

 

"Judith Durr's paintings make you wonder if you are looking through an open  window rather than at a painting. Indian-art objects are "still life"  is Judith's special  talent-an art of   illusion - created using the classic old masters technique with layers, many glazes, and a wet on wet technique.  It is why her paintings stand alone as  Enduring Legacies" that honor  American Indian  heritage."

Artist Judith Durr's exquisite oil paintings have taken Native American art to new levels on integrity, innovation spectacular style and dedication to realism making her one of the foremost and influencial Native American artists in the United States.

Documenting the artifacts, the cultures and native styles in her oil paintings, Judith Durr integrates and preserves the enduring legacies of her Native American heritage. Her work honors all facets of Native American life,  showcasing their history through her colorful and dynamic still life oil paintings.  

Capturing the emotions of the viewer with her illusion and realism and texture,  you want to reach out and feel the fabric of a rug, the leather,  the beadwork, the smoothness of the pottery or pick the kernels from the corn. Her distinctive style is unique with the use of beadwork that you want to touch. 

Painting from her extensive collection or from a collector's, Judith paints from life. She researches the history and stories about each artifact.  Each of her masterful paintings, is skillfully layered with colors and glazes using the technique of the old masters.  Her goal is too continually to push the boundaries  of excellence of superior oil paintings.  

Judith’s work is represented in several museum permanent collections including the Museum of  Anthropology and History, Mexico City, Mexico, Sharlot Hall Museum, Prescott, Arizona, The Pearce Museum in Corsicana, Texas and Pueblo Grande Museum, Phoenix, Arizona. Her genre includes Native American, historical research, portraits and classical still lives. storical research.
