Warm Light

57 x 43 inches | 1980

Much of Barton’s work references buildings, especially windows. She is a master at suggesting light. This piece glows because of the contrasting dark and light colors. The fairly minimal quilting is typical of this period. It ties the work together visually but plays a subsidiary role to the pieced top.
