"It is difficult to choose something brief to say about Albert Barcilon's work....for one could go on and on...
It gives me great pleasure to have two pieces of Albert Barcilon's work in our home and hope to acquire additional
ones for I revel in the bright colors that sparkle in Albert's work.
All of his work evokes the strong feelings which I seek in art".

Watercolorist, oil and acrylic painter, and photographer, Albert Barcilon has had a long-standing passion for art that began
some 58 years ago. Today Albert Barcilon continues to express his creativity as a painter of real and abstract compositions.
Using bold colors and designs, he draws inspiration from the lush tropics of Florida and the stunning vistas of Colorado.
As a professional artist, Albert Barcilon has had the distinction of being accepted to numerous juried shows, as well as
garnering many show awards and invitations to exhibit his work solo. He currently paints full time from his studio in Boulder,
Colorado, and his home in Tallahassee, Florida and enjoys showing others how to let their creativity flourish through workshops
he hosts.
“In painting, as in life, you must take risks in order to achieve. My challenge is to enjoy the process without obsessing about
the finished painting, I experiment with various supports–canvas, paper, and silk–and paint in either oil or acrylic. Using a
variety of techniques, such as image transfers and superposition, I deliberately set my canvas in a state of chaos. Then I
welcome the random hand that is dealt. I toggle between successive stages of disorder and order, simplifying and unifying my
work to arrive at a strong composition with bold colors.
The final painting is more an interpretation of what I feel than what I see.”
