The "opening night" of the Barlow-Barlow exhibition was a great party -- even for a jittery artist! I was so proud to be showing my work side by side with my Dad. Now it's back to the studio to get that paint flowing again!

Whew! I shipped twelve new paintings to the gallery this week -- for the show with my Dad. Can't wait to see our work side by side. I am so proud to have the privilege of showing my work with him.
“One of my earliest memories of art is watching my father, Philip Barlow, at the end of a long day, sitting and pondering a new painting he brought home from his studio. Did it “say” what his mind’s eye wanted it to say?
I took some creative detours – acting and writing – before finding my voice as an artist. I studied with amazing teachers and mentors in San Francisco, at UC Berkeley and the Art Students League of New York, but I have been influenced most by the work, words, wisdom – and the powerful “mind’s eye” of my father.
