These paintings and photos were created by Barbara Coleman and the images are under her copyright.


She told me that these paintings were inspired by visits to the La Guardia Corner Gardens at Bleecker and La Guardia Place in Greenwich Village, NYC.

She stated that the "paintings represent the beginning of my long term committment to express the color, variety and nuances of the life of garden plots like these.
I'm in love with La Guardia Corner Community Garden. I paint it in a abstract manner and hope that my painting lyricism translates into the joy it gives me."
