First Virtual Gallery Show

 With New Work

We are all kings and queens and royals, connected to a higher power and the collective unconscious. The series Kings is a celebration of all the faces of humanity. The crowns in this collection are a symbol. They can be seen as a halo — a light emanating from inside that rises above. None of us are alone. We are a collection of those who have gone before us. The crown is passed from one generation to the next. And everyone can find a crown that exists within themselves.

“In this time when so many of our faces are covered,
let us rejoice in the simple beauty of an open face.”

Through the Summer 2020 

Barbara Groot

Virtual Gallery Show

In Groot’s Splendor in the Grass collection, lush paintings in the abstract of green grasses, reeds, phragmites, ponds, creeks, inlets, and coves conjure up the scents of summer in the surrounding areas and around her Springs studio. 

Barbara Groot grew up in Southern California with the sun and light illuminating the landscape. Now living and working in East Hampton, she finds the light on the East End equally special and energizing.

There is an elegance in her long sweeping line work, reminiscent of musical phrasing. Her brushstrokes appear as if from modern music scoring which channels emotional lightness and spatial freeness, uplifting the viewer. Her boundaries are loose or nonexistent, contributing to a breathless freedom.
