Hancock, Barbara
Barbara Hancock has a larger than life view of the world. She has always lived on cattle properties in the Wandoan area, and the urge to paint often saw her running from paint brush to breast feeding the latest baby. Her training has been with the local art group and Flying Arts. Barbara takes on life and art at a hundred miles an hour, with ideas and paint tumbling out in a creative tornado. She stays true to sending her own message, and paints with verve, panache, and intensity.
Big brush strokes, and intriguing layers upon layers, create the depths of feeling with which Barbara’s canvases envelop the viewer.
