Meet the Artist
Barbara Ford
Digital Art
Barbara Ford uses the Procreate app to merge and manipulate layers of original photographs, as well as digital images of her paintings, prints, and/or collage. Her aim is to create depth and texture within the piece to imagine new ways of seeing the natural world.
She is an artist, writer, teacher and climate justice activist. She’s a late-in-life emerging artist, having studied at the Oregon College of Arts and Crafts in her forties, and has since studied at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology on the Oregon Coast.
Barbara explores the confluence and layers of meaning and the complexity of presence in a changing and sometimes hurting world. Her art is a form of witness to both the beauty and upheavals of these times through the creation and merging of layers of images, including original photographs, paintings, collage, and prints.
