HELEN BARNARD
BA
Helen is an abstract landscape artist passionate about colour, nature and bygone eras. She paints in mixed media, oils, watercolours and uses metal leaf in her work, either as a backdrop or as part of the pigment mix. Her work highlights the beauty of contrasting textures. Helen believes that art should play a dynamic part in any space, through vibrant colours or by reflecting light. She is fascinated by intense colour and by the way light falls throughout the day.
CONTACT
She has a particular fascination with Hitchcock’s Rebecca and it’s setting of Manderley, as well as the colour palette of the 30s & 40s, which can be seen in her work, whether in the large gilded canvases or in her landscapes and still life paintings.
