Fragments
New Assemblage Series
Faulkner West Gallery
February 1-28, 2010
Reception February 4 5-8pm
Barbara Baker McIntyre will show a new body of work “FRAGMENTS” at the Faulkner West room of the Faulkner Gallery (Santa Barbara Public Library, 40 E. Anapamu St.)
This new series is based around a collection of German doll parts and fragments. These have been unearthed in the Thuringia Province at various burned and destroyed porcelain doll factories. The parts date from 1880 to about 1930 and have been buried until recently.
In this series I am treating the parts more like Artifacts than just interesting parts to add into a composition.
This show will be of interest to doll collector and others who enjoy images from an earlier era. Fragments

Assemblage Workshop

2009-01-25T16:58:00.000-08:00

Cynthia, Terry & Blair came to my studio and experimented with found object assemblage.

Here they are gluing, drilling and assembling a variety of items.
Blair is puzzling over all these objects and what she wants to do to connect them to the foundation board.

Here's Terry and her mixed media Encaustic sample. She used hot beeswax & damar, collage and even screws & wire.

Each participant was given a box of selected items from my collection for experimentation and fun. there were also a variety of odds & ends for further testing. A very large variety of water based glues, epoxies,adhesives and other products were available and were discussed as well as tested.

Drill it, Screw it, Glue it !

We did all of the above!!!

Here are some of the projects. These are sampler pieces using different glues, adhesives and connecting techniques.

Assemblage Art Workshop

2008-12-16T16:05:00.000-08:00

I'm going to have to Clean Up!

Well I have been asked many many times whether I would consider teaching and I have considered it for a couple of years now. I just hope I haven't considered it too long.

I have come up with a 3 day work shop called "Drill It, Screw It and Glue It!"

January 20,21,22, 2009

The first question inevitably I am asked is what kind of glue do I use # 2 is where do I find my stuff. I will be supplying items out of my collection for students use. I am limiting the class to 6 participants because I want to teackh in my studio where I have a lot of built in ventilation. We are going to experiment with various glues and adhesiveis not normally handled because of fume/vapor problems. I am also going to have battery powered had drills and dremmels and show people how I use them , hold small objects for drilling lots of cool stuff.

So far I have about 3 very talented artists planning on coming

You can go to my website and get the full course description.

New Sculptures with Hands

2008-10-29T19:58:00.000-07:00

Purple Painting Party

This is a closer view of the commission I recently completed for a private home here in the Santa Barbara Area. The overall piece measured to the edges of outstretched hands approx 5.5' high x 3.5' wide.

I worked with the couple to first measure the area where they wanted to hang the piece and determine the size it should be and then get their wishes for color and what kind of overall impact the wanted.

This is the piece that started everything . This is the first wall-hanging hand sculpture. The hands are all vintage ladies gloves filled with expanding urethane foam and sealed with shellac, clear sealer, gesso, the painted with acrylics and varnished with golden uv protective varnish.

These pieces are joyous, positive, provocative and definitely not landscapes.

Raise Your Hands!

Wearable Art

2008-07-21T12:52:00.000-07:00

I now have a variety of hand made wearable art that ranges from freshwater pearls to vintage jewelry fashioned into necklaces and earrings. These pieces are fun and fashionable but not simple or plain. They demand the wearer be seen and reckoned with, marveled at and envied from afar.

August - Artist of the Month, Santa Barbara

"Achemy"

This is what I have always felt is at the heart of Assemblage and collage work.

Not turning lead into gold precisely, but creating something from nothing, a true spirit of creation, using discarded bits and pieces to create fantastic compositions.

I will be showing some newer pieces as well as some older favorites.
