Barbara Schoepf - "Painting for me is a
wonderful journey, an opportunity to be immersed
in the subtle beauty of nature.  Whatever the subject
matter, the elements of shape, color, texture and
edges are the language of painting. For me, painting
is balancing thinking and feeling, discovering what is
true and trusting in one's own intuition and my
natural surroundings in both a deliberate and
intuitive way, to let them emerge on canvas."
Barbara has a Fine Arts degree from Loyola
Marymount University and Arizona State University.  
by studying under various landscape and figurative
artists including  T.Allen Lawson, Mark Daily, Matt
Smith, Skip Whitcomb, Scott Christensen, Robert
Lemler and Sherri McGraw.  Barbara is an Artists
member of The Arizona Plein Air Painters Society
and the Tucson Plein Air Painters Society.  She is
honored to be the recipient of the Plein Air Painters
of America Award, received an award in Oil Painting
at the Best and Brightest Show and has received
various other awards.   She has exhibited at many
local and national shows including Santa Fe, Sedona,
Tucson and Cincinnati and is currently exhibiting at
