Works
Judie Bamber creates representational paintings and drawings based on photographic sources ranging from images of female genitalia to seascapes.[3] Her early work included still lifes in which objects, painted to scale, floated in front of monochromatic color fields.[4] In 2002, Bamber began a series of seascapes, making initial plain-air watercolor sketches that she then used for oil paintings. From 2005-2014, she worked on the project Are You My Mother?, consisting of small-scale representational watercolors and graphite drawings, based on posed erotic and fashion like Polaroids her father took of her mother in the 1960s.[5]
