Art has been a continual journey of self-discovery as Barbara's work has evolved and changed over time. Over the years, she has explored many mediums with an emphasis on decorative patterns and designs. Most of her adult life, she has focused on working in clay. "The magic of creating an object of beauty, to hold and perhaps use, never cease to amaze me. Pottery making is a process, and its connection with the earth and its rhythmic cycles guides me in my everyday living as an artist." The natural beauty of Vermont, as well as multicultural symbolism and the students she teaches, has been a constant source of inspiration for Barbara.
Welcome to the Artist In Residence Co-op Blog Spot. We are a collective art gallery in Enosburg, Vermont that exhibits the work of over 40 local Vermont artists. Each month, a group of our members are selected as featured artists to showcase in the gallery foyer. This blog is an additional space to feature and discuss these artists and their work.
