Creation has been my driving force since I could hold a crayon. Art, the
creation of and the viewing of, has always been a spiritual search, a search for
connection to the other side. After years of being a representational artist, The
Guardians emerged for me in 1981. In the beginning they were but a
suggested presence in the background. However, in recent years they have
grown to be my sole focus. They are a bridge between this reality and the
unseen reality that exists just beyond our breath.
My work has morphed from representational to the more intuitive abstract
work that I now produce. Creating is my form of personal meditation. If my
work speaks to you, that is wonderful. I feel it finds its own audience. I do not
assign meaning to it, that is entirely up to you, the viewer, to define. Each
piece has a message for personal interpretation. I do not claim the power to
know what that might be for you. Please, spend some time conversing with my
Guardians and see if you, too, can find a connection. ~ Barbara Desrosiers

Went by to pick up my 100% Pure Entry and met Mark Mittleman. He was getting the next sjow set up for March. He was so bubbly and excited about his artwork. It was contagious! I enjoyed talking to him about his art and the upcoming show, “DOUBLE VISION”. Opening Friday, March 1 at 5:30pm. Looks good!

What an awesome find, a true gem. It’s wonderful that Melbourne has an arts district and Fifth avenue Art Gallery really stands out. Its a must visit place in Melbourne, tucked away near the water. The variety of art done by local artists is noteworthy. I’m a recent transplant to the area from San Diego CA and I found more quality pieces in Fifth Avenue art Gallery than I did in San Diego arts district. Places like this really mark Melbourne as an up and coming area. Support the arts and visit this gallery, purchase original art, you will be glad you did!
