About the Item

Wave Front 2018 Acrylic on canvas 20 x 24 $2000 framed About the Artist: Beth Barry was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts in 1955 and started making art as a young child. Exposed to love of making things by her father, she used to make furniture and clothing for her troll dolls. She continued the making tradition by studying art in college and graduate school (Pratt 1979). Ms. Barry loved printmaking and painting, and started painting exclusively about fifteen years ago. Her compositions are personal responses to things she sees and feels in nature. There are expressive and primitive, capturing the feeling of the spaces she sees. When I first flew in an airplane, I was struck by the color, shapes and shadows created by the light from the sun. The sun influenced everything, infusing the already rich palette of the landscapes and seascapes with what felt like a supernatural light. As the plane moved, the images seemed to move as well. The shapes bounced and swayed in their own rhythmic way. This was all very exciting to me and the experience has informed my artwork ever since. Light, color and movement are basic elements of all of my paintings. My work has also been strongly influenced by the coastline of Massachusetts. I was born in 1955, grew up there and have always felt tremendous happiness and excitement at the beach. Pleasure is a large part of my process and a critical part of the finished piece. My paintings are places of happiness.
