About the Item

Liz Barber's organic abstract paintings are layered bursts of energy inspired by nature’s movement. Forms and lines fall into a sea of emotion. Shapes and reflections drift into volumetric configurations. She pours colors onto the canvas and watches what happens. Intuitively, she then edits. Barber uses a form of mixed media which allows for more creative freedom and gives the materials a voice. This painting makes a beautiful pair with the Liz Barber painting, "Magnolia 1." The most common reoccurring theme in Barber’s work is the ocean or natural elements and forms. The shapes serve as anchors for the mind to stop and reflect upon. They can be ambiguous or recognizable forms based on what the viewer brings to the piece. Barber leans towards distinctive color palettes at certain times of the year as the seasons change. They are either subtle or intense color interaction used to create depth or space. The overall process is a discovery, an intuitive response to shapes formed whether intentional or as a happy accident.
