"Looking at a Judith Laws painting is like looking into the fiery heart of Queensland opal". - Kate Collins (Sunday Mail)

Judith Laws bases her art on nature, but more as a point of departure into a sensuous world of exuberant and luscious colour. This highly creative artist has emerged as one of our best exponents of contemporary art. While much of her art is based on landscape and her experiences in exotic cultures from Morocco to South America and many places in between, she also has a figurative aspect to other works, but all are expressed with passion and energy.  Judith has had over 33 solo exhibitions and more than 40 combined exhibitions in London, Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Darwin, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast and many urban and country areas of Australia since 1979.

In such a successful career it is difficult to narrow down the highlights, but a few are;  the book "Laws" published about her life and work in 2002; commissions in the Parliamentary Offices, Brisbane to the Dubai Resort, Dubai;  and work  represented in corporate and private collections in Australia, Canada, USA, England, France and Japan.

"LAWS"
Judith Laws is well known for her vibrant and exciting paintings and now a superb 'coffee table' art book on her work is available.

This 112 page book has over 60 colour images and was written and designed by artist, writer, tutor and adventurer, Rex Backhaus-Smith, who has been involved in the production of a number of art books.
   The book gives an insight into the creativity, thought processes and sources of inspiration of this unique Queensland artist. The paintings speak vividly, not of conventional superficial contours but in glowing terms, to reveal the special charisma of the Australian countryside. This extremely innovative artist has emerged as one of our best exponents of contemporary art. Please contact the gallery to order your copy of this wonderful book.
