Barb BowlsbyGolden Westcoast, 2009, 24″×36″, Gilt/Mixed Media/Artist Designed Curved Panel

I love experimenting with metal leaf, patinas and washes. My landscapes begin on curved wood panels, designed by me, and known as my trademark. Inspired by the West Coast, these soft and ephemeral landscapes are anchored by a hint of realism, creating beautiful land formations and atmospheric effects. The paintings are finished with coatings of glass-like resin to mirror the viewer.

Although I am largely self-taught, I have studied painting and art history at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. This journey has led to a body of unique works recognized by juried artistic awards. I have shown my work in solo and group exhibitions, and am now an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists. My pieces can be found in corporate and private collections around the world.
