Ann Barbieri

FEBRUARY 2016

"I paint the world around me; a yellow lemon on a blue plate, a patterned tablecloth...color excites me, and makes me eager to paint. I strive for rhythm and movement in my paintings. They are loose and sensuous and often have the suggestion of a figure somewhere within. I draw often from the model and that attempt to capture the gesture creeps into my work even if it’s not meant to be figurative."

Ann's work will be featured from March 1 thru the 27th 2016 at The Arts Club of Washington March Exhibition

Ann Barbieri, a native of Washington D.C., was educated in the US and France and then attended Trinity College in DC and later studied art at UCLA and then returned to DC to continue her art studies at The Corcoran College of Art and Design. Her work has been called exuberant. She often starts with a scene from nature or an interior, working on paper and incorporating collage to achieve varied textures. Her paintings are informed by a lively sense of color. She draws regularly from the model and has completed many portrait commissions in her free, colorful style.
