TIVERTON, RHODE ISLAND

TIVERTON FOUR CORNERS GALLERY 

  Our Featured Artist for November is Barbara Edlund Healy

Barbara Healy’s paintings are inspired by the diverse colors of light in the beautiful coastal landscape where she lives.  She frequently paints plein air, using all her senses to share her vision. Paintings capture that feeling of peace and joy that comes from nature. She looks for what is unique to convey a sense of place. Although often evoked by a fleeting moment, she translates in paint to transcend time. Brushstrokes over glimpses of color intentionally reveal some of the painting process and layering enables her to create luminous color.  

Although she loves oil paints on canvas, she is always experimenting.  A Connecticut native, Barbara fell in love with the South Coast, and her husband Shaun, while getting her BFA at UMASS Dartmouth and stayed.  Her studio in Dartmouth, MA has been on the South Coast Artists Open Studio Tour for 14 years.
