A lifelong resident of New Jersey and a part-time resident of Florida for over thirty-five years, Judy Stach’s intimate understanding of life along the shore is reflected in her oil paintings of seascapes and landscapes which come alive with children at play, sailboats breezing by and gardeners lovingly tending flowers.  Her painting style is impressionist/realist, painting from real life (en plein air) and photographs, often combining both techniques to complete a painting using the full range of colors, values and light found only in nature. 

 

Judy is a Signature Member of the American Impressionist Society, Audubon Artists and plein Air Florida.  She is also an Emeritus Member of the Salmagundi Club in New York City and Founder and Co-President of the Plein Air Painters of the Jersey Coast.  Judy became the Artist in Residence for the Orchid Island Golf and Beach Club (Florida) in 2022 and will continue in that position through 2024.  She is currently represented by the Frederick Gallery in Spring Lake, New Jersey, and West Wind Fine Art, Keene, NH.  Her work can also be viewed on her website: judystach.com.

 

Her work has been viewed on the cover of Jersey Shore Magazine in 2007, 2011, 2013, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023.  Also, in the 2020 Spring edition of Jersey Shore Magazine, an eight-page retrospective entitled “The Clamdigger’s Daughter” appeared along with the cover page painting.  She was written up in the December 2019 edition of American Art Collector Magazine in association with her inclusion in the Keene, NH, Holiday 2019 Show for West Wind Fine Art along with her mentors, foremost artists Richard Schmid and Timothy R. Thies.  She was a panelist along with Quang Ho, Scott Burdick, Kathy Anderson and Daniel Keys discussing Richard Schmid’s influence on giving back to the art world as part of a retrospective for Richard Schmid in September 2016 in Denver, Colorado. Her paintings have appeared in Artist’s Magazine, Best of Florida Artists and Artisans, American Artists Workshop Magazine, Plein Air Magazine, Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine, NJ Design Magazine, Cape Cod Review and Inside NJ Magazine. In addition, an article about her painting was included in Vero Beach Magazine in 2005.  In 2011, The New York Times featured her painting, “On the Rocks”, in the Arts Section.
