Noël Hudson has lived and painted in New Mexico for over twenty years and has been a professional artist and art educator in New Mexico, California, and Japan for the past thirty-five years. Her paintings and works on paper reflect a combination of influences beginning with her early years in San Francisco and southern California. “When I was a child, frequent visits to the exotic pond-filled gardens and variegated landscape of Golden Gate Park, coupled with art museum exhibitions, initiated my desire to become an artist. Art and nature became my refuge and my joy.” Drawn by the cultural diversity, dramatic landscape, and theatrical light of New Mexico, like so many of the Taos moderns before her, Hudson finally made New Mexico her home in 1980. “The rich history and culture of New Mexico, the vast open spaces and the beauty of the land, as well as aspects of higher consciousness, continue to significantly contribute to both my inner life and creative life.” Hudson has had fourteen one-woman shows and has been included in numerous gallery and museum exhibitions in New Mexico and throughout the country. Her work resides in one hundred and fifty private, public, and museum collections.
