ART IS LIFE SESSIONS

In this enlivening “Art is Life” art making series hosted in her working art studio, artist Baret Boisson invites you to tap into the creative process as a conduit to awaken your native sense of wonder, curiosity and play.

Baret, a widely collected self-taught artist, holds a passionate belief in our innate creative abilities and the gratifying process of creative expression. 

Your imagination, self-trust and sense of play are all you need to bring this creative process designed to embolden your spirit… 

COMMISSIONS

Each commissioned piece is created in close collaboration with the collector, resulting in an original work that reflects both Baret’s artistic vision and the unique character of the space it will call home.

Commission Baret

"Baret Boisson is a brilliant artist whose talented work lives in my personal collection. We are all only temporary custodians of beauty, and it is a pleasure to care for Baret’s beautiful art."

- Elizabeth Taylor

British and American actress who began her career in the 1940s and was one of the most popular stars of classical Hollywood cinema in the 1950s.

"Jimmy's friendship is a true work of art!" Colbert writes on his instagram after receiving Baret's custom portrait, commissioned by Jimmy Fallon.

– Sephen Colbert

American comedian, writer, producer, political commentator, actor, and television host.

“Baret’s meticulously rendered portraits are stylistically reminiscent of the itinerant painters of early American Folk art. She captures her sitter’s spirit through their eyes and with a few carefully chosen props and a vivid and bold color palette. She is a contemporary American folk artist with a unique gift of communication and a beautiful sense of color and patterning. Like the great folk portrait painter Ammi Phillips, her work has the naive brilliance of a self-taught artist. With a client list that includes some of the world's most famous celebrities, all get the same whimsical and incisive treatment from her beloved dog Lucky to Elizabeth Taylor!”

– Bonnie Andretta

Gallerist & Curator

“Baret Boisson’s ability to capture personality comes not from her ability to render faces accurately, but to render expressions, presences, vividly. This is the work of a mature mind attuned to the uniqueness of personhood.”

- Peter Frank

American art critic, curator, and poet who lives and works in Los Angeles. Frank is known for curating shows at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in the 1970s and 1980s.

“Baret Boisson is a living legend.  Baret’s work hits a chord that speaks of personal history; her images make you think and remind you to dream.  In a messy world, Baret’s work reminds us that simpler says more, that innocence is charming, that purity is true beauty.”

– Nancy Juvonen-Fallon

American film producer. She and Drew Barrymore own the production company Flower Films. She is also the wife of Jimmy Fallon
