Dancing With Colour is a solo exhibition by Lorraine Barker, featuring varied and colourful semi-abstract landscapes in mixed media.
Having had a very varied career, I discovered painting quite late, at the age of 40. Starting with watercolours, and progressing onto oils and acrylics, I have subsequently found that mixed media affords me the most freedom of expression. I am most interested in depicting the landscape, where I can focus on the shapes, colours and textures to make what I hope are paintings which excite the eye.
I am currently teaching art to a small but enthusiastic group in Poulton, Cirencester, and I find it both satisfying and stimulating to pass on my experience.
