Artist's Statement
As a contemporary representational impressionist, I paint a variety of subjects. Common subjects that invite the viewer to reflect on their own life journey and appreciate the everyday beauty found along the way.

You know that feeling you get when you smell the salty air that transports you to glorious times spent at the beach? Or perhaps the familiar sights along roads travelled hundreds of times, those sights that define a certain place as home? Or maybe it’s the heart swell you experience as your fingers run through the fur of a loyal and much-loved pet? These are the feelings, all present for the viewer to experience as they explore the use of subject, color, light and brushwork in my paintings.
Artist's Bio
After earning her Fine Arts Degree from East Carolina University in Graphic Design, Beth Barger began her career in advertising and design. Beth's art calling was interrupted during the last 16 years of her career while she applied her subjective problem-solving skills to human resource challenges for an international corporation. In going full circle, she returned to the fine arts in 2017 to pursue her painting passion full time.

As a contemporary impressionist, Beth makes paintings that are infused with light and color creating a haven for her viewers to recall and honor their own treasured memories. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions garnering several awards and she continues to hone her craft through studies with nationally recognized artists.

Beth was born in Syracuse, New York. As a Navy dependent, she enjoyed experiencing life in a variety of coastal Navy towns before she settled with her husband in Apex, North Carolina.
