The North Central Arkansas Art Galleryinvites you to visit and purchase a piece of art for that special person for Christmas. There are thirty seven artists exhibiting their artwork with six new artists participating in the new exhibit. One is our feature artist Judy Percell.
Judy Percell is a new resident of Fairfield Bay. She went to school in West Memphis, Arkansas & attended college two years at Arkansas State University before graduating from the dental hygienist program at the University of Tennessee. She and her husband Bill have one son who is an optometrist in Memphis, a beautiful daughter in law who is the art director of Duck Unlimited magazine, and two wonderful Grandsons. Judy and her family used to camp every summer at Greers Ferry Lake and watched when it was being filled. Judy said moving here was a natural choice for her and her husband. Judy’s love of the arts started around the age of ten when her mother enrolled her in a Saturday morning children’s art class. Judy said “my mother thought she could not afford piano and piano lessons. I don’t think she realized what she had started.” Judy has not had any curriculum classes in art but has taken several years of group classes with different teachers. She now attends classes with Jim Tindall at the Fairfield Bay Community Center. She used to paint more in oils but now enjoys painting in acrylics. Her favorite subject to paint is landscapes with all of nature’s beauty. Since moving into her home in August she has been working on giving her home what she says is a much-needed facelift.
Be sure to go by and see Judy’s paintings in the Art Gallery.
