ABOUT THE ARTIST
Stacy Barter's Oil Paintings depict her intense fascination with light and atmosphere. She is constantly striving to capture depth and dimension in her work, along with accuracy and light. Working from life, whether it's painting out of doors, or in studio from fresh flowers or a live model, is her true passion. In her 30 plus years as a full-time professional artist, Stacy has won many top awards in some of the most important organizations and national exhibitions. She is featured ongoing in galleries throughout the country and is part of several museum collections and in several of Hollywood elite’s private collections. Stacy teaches workshops throughout the country as well as internationally and is on Senior Faculty at Crealde School of Art in Winter Park, Florida. Her own learning, growth and development are of utmost importance to her as well and she seeks out study with Master Painter’s she holds in high regard every year.
