Meditating upon the birth of the
Christ-child led me to combine the images of a baby, a cathedral, and dancing
light. Luminous Dawning is an attempt to hint at the power of faith, the
protection of the Almighty, and the eternal birth of hope despite this world of
pain. Upon the completion of this piece I found a kindred spirit in the words of
Meister Eckhart.
“The awakened heart is like a luminous sphere just giving without thought to any
who may come close or gaze at it. The soul becomes blessedly lost to all but its
own holy being.” ~Meister Eckhart, Jerusalem

Barbara trained in the fine arts
at the University of Rhode Island, and has studied informally in art communities
all over the world. The evolution of her work from the painted surface to
digital montage has been years in the process. Her work has always been impacted
by her faith as well as her surroundings. These lead her to search for an
understanding of God’s presence in the world, and his presence and
power in her work. She lives and works in Melbourne, Florida.
