Jude grew up in rural Nebraska and currently lives and paints in Lincoln. She studied biology and art for a BS from UNL before studying portraiture at the Art Students League of New York. Jude then earned a Masters in Scientific Illustration at the University of Arizona, illustrating a book on extinct mammals for her thesis. After moving back to Lincoln, she freelanced as a illustrator and developed her skills with watercolor and abstraction. The recent book “Flying Free” (2020) showcases some of her widely acclaimed crane art. Her artistic journey has been reported in Nebraska Life magazine and other media.
Jude is a signature member of the International Society of Experimental Artists. She has won many awards, and her work has been shown nationally and internationally. Her solo show, The Great Migration: A Celebration of Sandhill Cranes in Nebraska is at the Great Plains Art Museum in Lincoln from January through June 19, 2021. It includes 36 paintings and collages, including some uniquely colorful and fanciful birds. While her background includes artistic realism, Jude has been working primarily in abstract expressionism for the last several years.
