About Hand Painted Tiles:
Each tile is individually hand painted by Judith Geiger, using ceramic underglazes. Every
color requires at least three applications of glaze. When the painting is completed, the tile
is then kiln fired to approximately 2000 degrees.
Hand painted tiles are archivally mounted on black acid-free matboard with two inch off-white mats and framed in square profile natural ramin wood shadow-box style frames with clear acrylic.
Judith Geiger is well known for her colorful, whimsical paintings on silk. She is translating that same unique design sense to these ceramic tiles.
A Note from the Artist:
"My interests lie in creating work which is bold, bright, fun and
graphically stimulating. I try to make the ordinary into something different and unexpected.
Hopefully, it will put a smile on someone's face and brighten their
world."
As an artist, Judith Geiger has chosen to express the lighter, whimsical side of life. A B.A.
in painting from the University of California at Santa Barbara and an M.F.A. in textiles from
the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York provided the theoretical foundation. The
artist's seaside hometown of Santa Barbara provides much of the inspiration.
Judith's paintings on silk and licensed designs have been exhibited and sold
worldwide. For more information on Judith Geiger's original artwork, product designs
