Welcome to Hootiefish Designs

Whimsical and realistic fine art, textiles, and jewelrycraft

 
 
Hi, my name is Trasi Judd.  I am an artist and stay-at-home mother,  not in that order.  But since this site is about the art part, I am listing it in primary position.  In my spare time, what I have of it, I like making things, and have a few different areas of interest.  I draw/paint, sew, create things with yarn, paint murals. 
 
Aside from some intensive classes in high school, I have not been professionally trained in fine art.  That basically means I am self-taught. 
 
Instead of art school, I earned a B.A. in German, French, and Russian.  Four years later, I went back to graduate school in business and have an MBA from the University of Texas.  Six years ago I left my terrific high tech career to stay at home with our sweet daughter. I set aside my artwork for many years due to time constraints and other interests, but I have picked it up again here & there.  I don't know if I will ever pursue high tech again - time will tell.  For now, with the limited free time I have, my artistic endeavors are enough to keep me busy and challenged.
Fine Art

Whimsical watercolor and acrylic paintings, murals, and illustration.
 
Textiles

I create things with textiles, including felt, knitted/crocheted and felted wool purses and pouches, scarves and afghans.  I also sew clothing, quilts, and costumes.
