Art Brokerage: Timothy Barr American Artist: b. 1957. Timothy Barr was born in 1957, in Hamburg, Pennsylvania. All of my paintings are oils, painted in the Luminist tradition. (Many thin transparent layers of paint, usually put down wet over dry, depending on the effect I'm after.) I gravitate to the color and light of the Barbizon School of the 19th century. When I paint, the kind of brushstroke that I use is crucial this movement brings about a rhythm in the painting as well as describing form, mood, movement….. This rhythm is what I strive for in my paintings, to unlock the part of the viewer's brain that reacts to beauty, much like music. I think it's because paintings connect with our base emotions and our need for beauty and order in a disorderly world. I try to capture this beauty and to make it last forever, as well as to make my own personal mark on the world. Color and light are high language tools. They express things that connect to the part of our brains that deal with base emotions. I use what they bring to the art world as a departure point and by adding my own sense of light and color, I can more closely convey the unique way in which I perceive this world. Listings wanted.
