WCAC 2010 ARTIST SERIES
MARCH ART SHOW

Luminous Watercolors
Featuring the artwork of Barbara Fox

On display March 1st through 31st.

Colorful, luminous, and dramatic are words used to describe my paintings. I paint in watercolors, in a highly realistic, yet moody and intense style. My subject matter is mostly floral, still life, and portraits, but I'll paint whatever catches my eye.

From the first creative inclination to start a painting to the final finishing touches, I use references from photographs and life, and the intuition I've developed over 25 plus years of painting. I begin a painting with loose pencil drawings on the paper. I build up the colors and value using multiple layers of washes. This gives the watercolor painting luminosity and richness of color.

My artistic goal is to paint all of my subjects faithfully and beautifully, but using colors and values that present the object in a new way, making the ordinary extraordinary.
