Judith Fischer, from Small Space Gallery in Hostile Valley in Liberty, is exhibiting her oil paintings at the library during July and August. She was born in Long Island, New York. As the fourth generation in a family of artists, she began painting as a small child. She continued her studies at the State University of New York at Fredonia.

Judith moved to Maine in 2002 and participated in various group shows and several local and national galleries. She has been an art instructor to both individuals and groups and was honored to serve as Artist-in-Residence at Merryspring Nature Reserve in Camden.

Growing up around boats and surrounded by water, it’s no surprise that this watery world is one of her favorite painting subjects. Judith is also a basketmaker and weaver presently in pictorial tapestry weaving where her latest series focuses on – what else – water!

Her paintings are for sale and she is generously donating 40% of her sales to the library.
