Cornucopia of Colors--French Countryside I

This colorful piece was imagined during a drive up from the Loire River Valley in France to Normandy. The rolling hills, lush fields, and verdant forests of the countryside provided a stunning backdrop to the French villages with their slate covered roofs. It was truly a cornucopia of color!

Artist's Statement:

Don Barnett’s unique style of art blends line-work with vivid colors using oil/watercolor/gouache paint, and occasionally oil pastels. Lines don’t always follow a linear pattern and colors are often exaggerated resulting in a lively expressiveness. Primary sources of Don’s inspiration comes through travel and other experiences and observations as he strives to bring life to recognizable shapes and forms that are all too often unobserved and taken for granted.
