Barbara Jay Bouman – Painting

My most recent body of work consists of oil, wax and plaster on panel utilizing a modified fresco technique named A Secco. In my 1300 square foot studio (MUSE Ranch) the paintings evolve through the application of layered materials, gesture making, dragging and scraping. A surface is established that is new and exciting and inspires the next journey of rediscovery.

The development of my art has been a long and continuous, intuitive journey; a voyage of experimentation, exploration and evolution. Relocating to the rural mountains north of Los Angeles from a suburban CA community in 2004 has influenced my aesthetic in terms of balance and space and color, spontaneity and order, with a merging of concepts between minimalism and expression.

I am a full-time painter and printmaker exhibiting regularly across the United States in juried group shows, nationally attended art fairs and festivals. Solo exhibits have taken place in museum, gallery, and college venues.

Current works may be viewed at Costello Childs Contemporary Art in Scottsdale, Arizona.
