Natasha Barnes is a South African born artist
and has been painting since the age of seven.
Her natural talent and pure passion for painting
has led her to develop a profound style,
exhibiting expressionism, color and movement.
Her paintings are inspirations found in her travels
and the love for the rich African landscapes
surrounding her life. Apart from a few art lessons
as a child, Natasha has had no formal art
training. After completing school, she studied at
the Cordon Bleu Culinary School and worked
as a culinary editor and food stylist for a leading
South African magazine, before opening her
own culinary school. During her culinary years,
Natasha painting part time and exhibited
extensively in South Africa. Her love for the
brush finally led to the decision to give up
everything else and to paint full time. She enjoys
pure watercolors and acrylics, often mixing the
two. Her subject matter dictates the flow of the
paint. Natasha's work is found in galleries
throughout South Africa and has been exhibited
in the UK, America and the Middle East.
