"I make paintings to transcend daily life and the six o’clock news, to evoke the sublime, to reaffirm the existence of beauty and the critical importance of cherishing the earth." - Barbara Rogers What remains consistent in Rogers’ work is the garden and her love of and respect for nature. Rogers continues to revel in the awesome beauty and power of the elements and humankind’s relationship with the life forms that exist within them.
