Join us for the opening reception on Saturday, March 1st, 2025 from 4:00 - 6:00pm!
Backyard Dreams, a solo show by Petaluma-based painter Samantha Barnes, will be on view at Cura Contemporary from March 1st - April 27th, 2025. Samantha Buller's artwork is light filled, striking, and experimental. She utilizes imaginative color layering and lively brushwork to invite a fresh take on familiar, commonplace objects.
Samantha received her BFA in painting from the Academy of Art University San Francisco and now paints full time in her home studio in Northern California. Her work has been shown in the Hall of Justice downtown San Francisco, in businesses and several galleries, as well as on the set of a prime time television show.
Samantha will also be holding a two-day oil painting workshop, in which students will create a large pet portrait using a 30x30 canvas and a reference image of your choice! This workshop is 18+ only and best for intermediate artists. Samantha's workshop will take place on two Saturdays, April 5th & 12th from 10AM-3PM. Sign up today to receive early bird pricing!
