About

"Painting is my way to express myself. I'm on this journey to explore, open myself up, and translate what I see, sense, and feel. This is how I connect with the world around me"

Barbara Hardy says that art has always been and continues to be an important part of her life. She studied art education at Appalachian State University. Her work has been shown in a solo show, a two person show with her artist husband Bob Ray, and group exhibitions across the Southeast. Barbara has many pieces in private and corporate collections. She teaches and has done residencies through the NC Arts Council.
