Artworks Foundry/Gallery -- Judy Kensley McKie

A daughter of artists, a painter with a fine understanding of organic form, especially of the connecting parts, McKie as furniture maker is self-taught. No one daunted her with the hierarchy of rare woods, nor a litany of joinery, nor the rituals of hand tools properly pointed. If her images are often as knowingly naļf as those of Rousseau, or hauntingly stirring as Gaugin’s Noa Noa woodblocks, the results flow from common well-springs and run as purely to feed our thirst for untainted source water.
