FASO Collector Recommends: Chantel Lynn Barber

Biography
Chantel was introduced to acrylic paint for the first time in 1990 and grew to love it so much that it became her primary medium. She found it lent itself beautifully to the looser, impressionistic style which allows her to capture and share her artistic vision of the splendor found in the human soul. So, she began an adventure in acrylic portraiture and figure painting, eventually branching out into teaching in this vibrant medium - encouraging many to try acrylic themselves.
Chantel’s work has been featured in shows and juried exhibitions nationwide and is in private and public collections worldwide. Some of her awards include Certificate of Excellence Award Winner - Portrait Society of America International Portrait Competition, Ninth Place Non-Commissioned Portrait Category and Finalist Outside the Box Category - Portrait Society of America Members Only Competition, a Second Place Award and fourteen Outstanding Acrylic awards in the BoldBrush Painting Competition, and Best Figure & Portrait and Best Acrylic in the Annual Plein Air Salon Competition.
Her work is published in Acrylic Artist magazine, American Art Collector, Southwest Art, The Artist’s Magazine, Fine Art Connoisseur, International Artist Magazine and several books. Her DVD produced by Streamline Publishing is a best seller. Chantel resides in Denison, TX where, in her studio, she creates and teaches private workshops. In addition, she teaches online and holds workshops throughout the United States
Artist’s Statement
Chantel yearns to promote the human spirit in her work. She believes that when it comes to the human race, there is more that unites than divides. There is beauty in everyone, regardless of whether they measure up to society’s definition of beauty. Not only their joys, but their sorrows too. She wants to show the beauty in the human condition. Chantel is on a journey to capture the vision in her mind’s eye - the one blood we as humans share. And she does it all in acrylic - with strong color, energetic brushwork, light and story. Her loose style draws the viewer’s attention, visually beckoning them to wonder at the essence of life.



She's an amazing expressive artist indeed!! 🙏😍🔥🙌
