Natasha Barnes



South Africa





Natasha Barnes explores different dimensions of color and expression of South African light. She has been working on much larger, expressive pieces of abstract art in recent years.


Abstract Expressionism, by nature, has the potential to rouse and stimulate viewers with its use of courageous colors, excitable brushstrokes and non-concrete nuances. Artist, Natasha Barnes, embodies this in her work and her paintings, which are rich in texture, vibrant color and lavish design to create bright, bold and fun art with a burst of pure energy. Capturing the essence of imagination and emotion, her canvases are a direct reflection of her passion for art – something she realized very early on in life and which has resulted in this self-taught painter’s considerable success.


One of Africa’s most published artists, Barnes is taking the art world by storm and her exquisite work, available all over the globe in book and print form, is, without a doubt, a testament to her incredible success.


Born in 1969 in the small town of Parys in the Free state, Barnes had what she describes as an “idyllic childhood”. Growing up on a farm, living a rural lifestyle, Barnes found that her natural creativity was able to flow of its own accord. “My early years really shaped the person I became. You have such freedom of expression in small towns, as well as the room to become who you need to be– not shaped by any expectations of larger peer pressures of city life,” she says. At the tender age of four, while playing in her grandfather’s study, Barnes realized that art would come to totally consume her life.


Apart from the many unexpected walls that provide homes for her works, she has sold widely all over the world and done numerous corporate and private commissions, artworks for Hollywood and TV, greeting cards, hotels, airport lounges and boardrooms.
