Biography
Coming from two generations of artists, Barb has been painting for most of her adult life, exploring various mediums and styles. She attended Syracuse University, and later at SUNY Albany, majoring in Art, and has studied with Nicholas Wilton, a well-known California artist. Abstracts are now her main area of interest. She found that not focusing on the recognizable gave her great freedom. Influenced by artists such as Helen Frankenthaler, Brian Rutenberg, Richard Diebenkorn and Nick Wilton, her paintings are bold, vibrant, and full of color. Using the basic art elements of shapes, contrast, design, and texture she creates abstracts that allow the viewer an opportunity to find their own meaning in the artwork.
She has been part of many group exhibitions and solo shows, and her award-winning paintings are in private collections across the USA.
Artist Statement
My paintings are built on a series of layers, colors, and marks along with an exploration, a search, a digging for clues, a making of mistakes, of changing course, of leaving behind and a discovery of something new. It's a practice of distillation and finding what is essential, potent and meaningful, and letting go of what is not. It's a series of questions and responses.
People often ask me what inspires a piece. My work is very intuitive and my best work happens when I'm having an active conversation with the canvas, when I'm really listening, letting the piece tell me where it needs to go. My paintings are really about my own personal journey, and I hope to convey joy. They are meant to invoke their own persona and therefore influence the viewer in different ways. I paint without fear and without intention and my multilayered abstractions are created spontaneously and "from the heart" I hope you enjoy them!
