Artist Statement
The use of media and the exploration of media and techniques is a constant focus of Barbara’s work. Combining elements of the Impressionists, Georgia O’Keefe, and Van Gogh, her work is best termed contemporary realism featuring closeup images to invite the viewer to “enter” and participate in the scene.

Working in acrylics, oils & watercolor frees Barbara to be able to create unique effects that are impossible with one medium alone.  Her artistic expressions seek to capture the energy, essence and spirit of Nature and to portray our relationship to Nature and Spirit. This goes along with the notion that we are all part of a cohesive Whole, and each part of that Whole, makes a difference and contributes a unique and different perspective. A great reverence for Life and for each living thing, is the driving force behind Barbara’s paintings.
