Judith McKay
Artist member since 2019
Mississauga, Ontario
Judith McKay is a modern abstract artist based in the Toronto area. She is an intuitive and high energy painter, juxtaposing unique colour combinations for visual impact. The depths of the unconscious mind and the subversive effect of absurdity inform her work, imbuing it with a touch of both whimsy and pathos. Her modern abstract art defies the usual rules of painting. It is expansive, free and in the moment. She applies paint lavishly, experimenting along the way to iterate to the desired effect. She uses a combination of detailed brushwork, pouring, splattering and even finger-painting. Although her technique is cathartic, she rigorously finishes each piece to ensure high quality artwork. She has exhibited her work at major art fairs, including the Artist Project, as well as private galleries in the Toronto area.
