Barbara Grinell’s paintings speak of moonlight and storms, showing mountain peaks and winter mists. Her work reflects the feeling of solitude and the power of the natural world around us. In her time as an artist, Grinell has seen how change, uncertainty, and loss can govern life. Looking at her own experiences in upstate New York, Grinell shared, “living in the Catskills has been both an adventure and a sanctuary.” Grinell has observed that her paintings, “seem to reflect the mountains in which I live.” Beyond these truths, Grinell wishes to let her art express itself to her audience and she invites her viewer to take what they will from her work.
