Sneak Peak!

10/30/2013

I've been painting, a lot. With the purchase of some new colors, crisp brushes, and unique wood sizes, came hours of inspiration. Playing outside this summer gave me some freedom and perspective that was truly needed. I'm on a roll...

I frequently get requests to "paint more horses! paint more cows!" So I did.

Thank you Lars for the beautiful wood scraps!

I absolutely get lost in capturing nature's playful personality.

Scraping paint onto wood is too much fun. Seriously how can this be my job?
I see some space in these two paintings that will be great for greeting cards.

I thought I sold this piece. The other day I had dinner with my daughter and saw it on her dining room shelf. Hmmmmmm.

My favorite girls came to help me this summer. Awwwwwwwe.......
They are my best creation so far.

Hi, I'm Carla.
This is a blog about my life and work so you can get to know me a little better!

For several years, my painting business
was known as
The Barefoot Studio
I am fading out the "barefootstudio" part of my name so that I can just use
my OWN name:
CARLA BROWN
I like it!

Lets keep it simple from now on. Yay simplicity!

I love to paint.

When not painting on wood, I'm painting on canvas (and all over the floor and my clothes).

The newest adventure in the studio is the addition of prints adhered to wood.
OH FER FUN!
Seriously it's been a blast and has changed the direction of this business in so many exciting ways!

I have a strong connection and curiosity with trees and plants. The patterns they create with the sky and air as their background are intriguing. Because of this relationship, the elements of nature often appear in my paintings.

Words and quotes are frequently incorporated into my paintings. I like to make people laugh! I like to touch peoples souls. Life is SO big, yet so precious. The little moments are important to me.

THANKS TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO PURCHASED EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF ART THIS YEAR. NO MATTER HOW BIG OR SMALL, WITHOUT YOU ARTISTS WOULD STARVE AND EVERYTHING WOULD BE SAD AND GRAY. YAY YOU!

Color makes us happy.
