Judith Crowe

Judith took her first art lessons at age five when her uncle and aunt, both artists, sent her to drawing lessons. She has since continued to work with a variety of drawing and painting media, including oil, watermedia, colored pencil and pastels.

She has enjoyed painting with pastels; has studied this medium for several years, and works weekly with a group of pastellists in Ojai. She also works with watermedia, frequently at the Doyon Studio in Camarillo. These commitments are valuable for keeping the pace of work fresh and for the critiques from fellow artists. She also teaches classes at the Red Brick Gallery in Ventura and occasionally at the Thousand Oaks Community Gallery. A current list of her shows and workshops may be found on this website.

A resident of Thousand Oaks, CA, Dr. Crowe is a member of the Pastel Society of the Gold Coast, Buenaventura Art Association, Thousand Oaks Art Association, and Westlake Village Art Guild. She is an award-winning artist who exhibits work regularly. She demonstrates her techniques as a booth artist for UArt paper at the Pasadena Art Expo. Her work is currently shown at galleries in Thousand Oaks, Ventura, and Carpinteria, California. It has also been shown in Pismo Beach, Morro Bay, New Orleans and New Hampshire. Her paintings hang in a number of private and corporate collections.
