Original Art from the Heart, Hands, and Soul of Judi Paul

Judi Paul has been creating art since early childhood.  Inspired by nature she’s a huge animal lover so it comes as no surprise her art mostly revolves around creatures of all kinds.  Although certified in Fine Art and Airbrushing, the majority of her work is self taught.  In addition to fine art and airbrushing Judi creates original soft sculpture animals, clay sculptures, pencil & ink illustrations, wood burning, needle felted critters, troll doll maker overs, airbrushed & embellished denim jackets, knitted animals, reborn creatures, fluid art, and satin wedding bouquets; each rose created petal by petal.

Luxembears creations can be found in over 24 countries and museums in Japan and Denmark.  Over the past 24 years Judi has been honored with First Place Awards in the TITA (Tokyo International Teddy Awards), Golden George Awards, Ebearz University Awards, and multiple First Place Awards in each of the following: TOBY Awards, Golden Teddy Awards, British Bear Awards, and URSA Awards, along with a few second places.

Her crowning glory is First Place in the one time only Steiff Bear Design Contest in 2004.  Her art has been featured in numerous international magazines including 3 full front covers of collectible artist bear magazines; Teddy Bear and Friends and Teddy Bear Review and collectively on Teddy Bear Times.  Judi loves creating and can’t imagine life without art. “Art is like breathing.  I never know what will come into my head at any given moment. All I know is when that happens I have to create and bring my thoughts to life.”
