Judith Reilly is an award-winning Fabric Artist whose work has been exhibited in numerous national and international exhibitions as well as in museums, galleries and government buildings. She has traveled extensively teaching and speaking – most notably sharing her inspiration on the topic “Twelve Life Lessons for Creativity”. Using fabric, paint and thread to express her world, her unique interpretations have been shared with others through books, magazines, newspapers and television.

Judith now operates a Gallery housed in her historic home where she shares and sells her original artwork, print reproductions and a delightful collection of accessories. She sells framed and unframed fabric originals in several size and price ranges. She also offers giclée print reproductions – using archival quality pigment inks and acid-free paper and mats -sized for 8×10, 11×14 and 16×20 frames. Several pieces are also available as note cards.

Judith’s Gallery and Studio will be open all weekend for Art in the Snow and Judith will be demonstrating her art. Contact Judith at 802-247-8421 or by email: judith@judithreilly.com

Artist Statement:
The vibrant colors and textures of fiber have always sung out to me. After half a century of developing an intimate relationship with needle, fabric and thread I now delight in combining the technical skills and complexity of a master quilt-maker with the soul of an artist. Rich colors and distinct lines intertwined with a light-hearted spirit and a love for storytelling are signatures to my work. My pieces are representational but not literal – expressing both realistic and fantastic interpretations in a catawampus and quirky style. I consider myself a “fanciful artist”, not needing to answer to reality. I visit reality once in a while, but I have no desire to live there. To me, the challenge of life is to recognize and claim our individual creative gifts. The joy of life is to live them.
