Artist 32: Jud Turner

He was born in Eugene, Oregon in 1969. He has always been drawing, painting, and sculpting ever since he can remember. He attended the University of Oregon where he studied studio art. His main medium is metal welding and assemblage. Most of his work has a biological theme and occasionally uses bones (fabricated or real). He also works with wire, as a stand alone medium or in mixed media.

His work inspires me to use bones in a different manner than in traditional forms. He also inspires me to use some found objects in my fish sculptures, when I have suitable parts.
