Barbara Stanton presents The Fascinating Female Form at First Street Wine Company

  • First Street Wine Company (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Barbara loves painting small, but she also has a deep passion for drawing from life and studying the human form. She’s a facilitator of a figure drawing workshop in Livermore that meets every Friday morning. Barbara believes that drawing from life is the best way to improve drawing skills. To showcase the art of the nude, Barbara runs the annual “Essential Figure” art show held at the Bothwell Arts Center in Livermore, every spring.

Over the years, Barbara has amassed a huge body of figure drawings. If you’re interested in seeing more of her collection, you can also schedule an appointment with her. At first, Barbara used pastels (18”x24”), watercolor, and pen and ink. She will on occasion bring out her watercolors or oils still but now she mostly draws digitally with Procreate on her iPad. The nice thing about digital drawing is that you can print them on anything and in any size.

Expressionism

Erika has always been enthralled by humanity. People fascinate her (cats too). Her basic field is expressionism and her works are portraits and genre compositions.

Says she:

"People give off their own ‘vibes’ and can reveal the most remarkable things about themselves. Each of has a very personal way of seeing the world. And these are the qualities I believe I bring forward, often on an instinctive level."

“People enjoy ‘seeing through my eyes’. I have been told that my work has ‘presence’. One often feels as if the subject were not on the wall, but actually in the room. One man remarked that my portrait of him looked more like him than he does.”

“As regards style, I love ambience, deja vu, that certain something, and flirting with the cliché, One gets a definite sense of place, or of time of day, or of having been there before."

Erika has spent most of her life in California. She has participated in shows in London and the Bay Area. She has had one-person shows in locations in Stockton, Livermore, Pleasanton, San Ramon, Santa Clara and San Jose. She created commission portraits and sold fine art to collectors in California, and a few in Europe and Yokohama.

Stefanie Sylvester is Showing at Ryan's Automotive

My abstract paintings are a visual record of synthesis—how we make meaning by connecting scattered bits of information. Forms and vignettes are built through layers of collage, paint, and mark making. The process is playful and open-ended, rooted in curiosity, experimentation, and resilience. I allow the work to unfold, discovering images and relationships rather than planning them. 

I source collage materials from coloring books as a way to revisit my formative influences and honor the role of childhood creativity in my artistic journey. Coloring books were my point of entry into artmaking, as they are for many people. Because their visual language is so widely shared and familiar, they lend an accessibility to these abstractions. Fragments of these images remain visible in the finished work, like easter eggs, inviting views to look closely and connect personal memory with collective experience.

“I’ve loved working and experimenting with Oil, Acrylic, Mixed Media, Encaustic Hot Wax, Resin and Metal over the last 40 years. I thrive with the challenge of working with something new. Creating art is a journey that slowly unfolds, taking me to places I have yet to see. I Create because I’m compelled to create, inspired by those that are like minded and the world around me. Being an Artist brings me Joy and I hope to continue bringing Joy to those who view and purchase my work, for many years to come.”
