Patricia Barmatz
My blogs
| Introduction | Although born in California, Patricia Barmatz actually spent her pre-teen years in New Jersey where the Watchung Reservation was just a climb over the back fence. She embraced every opportunity that came her way to trek through the woods and spend time at her favorite stables. The profound love of animals and horses she developed during those growing years, in what felt like a magical place, is what inspires her creative endeavors today. There is something about the honesty that comes across in her artwork, especially when she pairs children and animals. A self-taught artist, specializing in colored pencil and mixed media, Barmatz has an uncanny ability to create life on the canvas. She loves to paint all types of animals, especially horses and children. Painting the children and animals together reminds her of the when she was a child experiencing nature for the first time. |
