Judith Tutin - Irish-born/Cornwall-based Visual Artist & Teacher - shares her faith and her gift including growing up in a Catholic family in Ireland; how having a strong faith instilled in her allowed her to withstand Catholic scandal; how her older brothers, and spending time alone in Rome, brought her back to her faith; her parents faith example and influence on her; the meditation of praying the rosary; her passion for drawing and art as a young child; how music compliments her art and our mutual admiration for The Smiths and Morrissey; how the decaying buildings in Rome links to nature; how overthinking art can get in the way of enjoying art; an appreciation for Rothko; a vocational compromise with her parents that led to teaching art; how she decides what to put on the canvas; how her painting affects her faith; the importance of beautiful churches; if she could own one piece of art in the world, what would it be and why; and so much more!
