O-070 Summer Tiger Lilies by Barbara Hall wc 17x23 $670

O-071 Afternoon Rose by Barbara Hall wc 8x8 $350

As a contemporary painter, I delight in painting that which captures my eye and spirit. My subjects are varied, from landscapes, flowers,  cityscapes, portraits, to imaginative intuitive themes, in watercolor and acrylic. My summer studio, in the northern California mountains, soothes and inspires, with its peaceful quiet of woodlands, forest, meadows, creeks and ponds. I enjoy winter ‘down the hill’ in the foothills, and often take off for the coast north of San Francisco, where I  grew up. Traveling affords me time to reignite excitement and adventure & my watercolor travel journal is always close by.       “When I paint, I smile.”

O-072 Southwest Sun Time by Barbara Hall acrylic 11x14 $370

 

When painting, my intention is for my artwork to be a reflection of living with an open heart, open mind, and open eyes. A sense of wonder inspires my art, and my hope is that my art touches others in this way.
