Below are a few notes from Maggie about herself and her work. There is no way to explain and describe the wonderful talent this artist brings to paper and canvas, and for the world to view.
There is a magic in her work that will sweep you into places only dreamt of. Her work inspires stories to be told and created and embodies a mysticism that only a beautiful heart and mind could produce.
I am indeed proud to work with such wonderful beauty and talent.
Kimberly Raiser
Biography for Maggie Barra
As a artist working in the digital field as a fantasy artist and illustrator I was so pleased that author Kimberly Raiser contacted me with her interest in using one of my creations for her wonderful book "The Family Bones", which is due out with much anticipation this October.
My inspiration stems from the mystical misty shores of the Pacific Ocean and the magical ivy covered woods here in Oregon in the Pacific Northwest of our beautiful country.
One way can be learned by starting to see the magic in everything. Sometimes it seems to be hiding, but it is always there. The more we can see the magic in one thing, a tiny flower, a mango, someone we love, then the more we are able to see the magic in everything and everyone. Where does the lavender field stop and the sky begin?...and that's what Kimberly does in her writing.
Another collaboration with this talented author is "The Children of Roen" which is in its early stage of creation.
