This Bremerton, Washington artist is known for her original prints, hand-made paper creations, and mixed media. Barbara's work reflects her passions about the natural elements surrounding our world. She creates through fleeting images and color visions provided by nature. These images capture and communicate excitement, relaxation, can bring a smile, spark a thought, or memory.
Being inspired by the various techniques she uses provides Barbara an exciting variety of possibilities for creating, from delicate imagery to bold vivid compositions. Her work varies from representational to abstract.
Barbara uses intaglio and relief to produce her prints, which include etchings, collagraphs, serigraphs, monotypes, and embossings. She states, "Print making is both exciting and a challenge." She enjoys the suspense, anticipation, and satisfaction that develops as each step in the print making process contributes to that moment when the first print is finally pulled off the press.
To expand her possibilities for personal expression, Barbara has learned to produce hand-made paper, which she has developed into an art form. Designing her hand-made paper into compositions to be used with her print making. Paper can be sculpted, molded into landscapes, dyed, etc. Materials gathered while out enjoying nature become incorporated into her paper, mixed media, or collage work to create interesting textures as a further dimension to her art.
