Lois Ann Barnett

b. 1961, Arkansas
d. 2007, Richmond, CA

Lois Ann Barnett made incredible drawings evoking jittery, kaleidoscopic landscapes. Her drawings reflect an uncanny ability to use a myriad of stock marker and pencil colors to make a cohesive and subtle unified work. Her colors meld together and fight for independence the way many pointillist masterpieces do. Barnett made the majority of her work at the NIAD Art Center in Richmond, California, a non-profit studio for artists with physical and developmental disabilities. Barnett was legally blind and made most of her work with her face just inches from the paper.
