harmony, all of which she researches beforehand. Not only does she paint her
ideas, she cuts repeating shapes out of paper and accents certain designs with

The Barn Girl Art Exhibit will return to the Gallery at the Jewish Community Center through March 30 and opens with a reception this Sunday, March 5, 1-5 p.m. A percentage of all proceeds will go to the Barker Art Residency.

encouragement and support of artists in the realization of their
potential.
