Emblematic of Barber’s paintings are the organic layered forms and textural variations visible on the painting’s surface. For the most part, Barber’s poured paint process is spontaneous, allowing for incidental reactions to occur between the various mediums utilized. Graphite and oil pastel mark making is visible among the organic shapes whose color palettes are inspired by the seasonal changes.
In the artist’s own words “There is always abstraction in my paintings no matter what the subject matter is. Nature provides organic, compelling shapes. Usually, drawing is the starting point consisting of ambiguous elements that add depth to the painting.”
