For Barbara Page – artist, designer, gardener, reiki practitioner and self-described ‘creative potentialist’ – making art is about far more than creating pretty pictures.

“The creation of art is a portal to the ever present now,” she writes, “losing one’s imagined self and expressing the truth of who we really are–inspiration, creativity, freedom, joy, peace and love.”

Art is a means of exploration – not just of materials and techniques, but of perceptions and emotions. Art is freedom.

We couldn’t be happier to welcome Barbara and her stunning work to the Herringbone family.
