Judy Bisgard

Judy Bisgard, born and raised on Maui, attended Mills College in California where she received a degree in History with a minor in Fine Arts. She has worked in the arts for over 40 years, volunteering as a board member at museums and non-profit organizations, such as Hui Noʻeau and the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. Bisgard’s inspirations are drawn from the local Maui flora, the fast changing environment, and the decline of pineapple and plantation houses, while incorporating the color and compositional techniques of the French Impressionists. This retrospective exhibition showcases Bisgard’s experiences with a wide range of media, including plein air paintings, fiber, encaustic, pastel, intaglio, and woodcut.
