For Barbara Heile, the intuitive process has taken the lead. She finds her way as she goes.
She is smitten, as any long time painter would be.
She's challenged.
And she keeps learning.
Value Design Color Texture Risk and Soul are principles that keep her eyes on the road. As she opens more and more to play - as she listens to the call and sees her response, these principles are like Sherpas guides supporting her desire to enter every more directly in connection to the creative process.
Painting with acrylic, mixed media, or oil and cold wax, she uses tools of any kind to make a mark, to lay a color, to create a texture. This group of paintings reflect her love of the kitchen.
Expressive contemplation names what happens in her studio whether she is working from memory or engaged in the wonder of abstraction; the underpinning of each painting and sometimes its full voice.
There is joy here to be shared.
