About:

Revalation Vineyards is pleased to feature artist Barbara Hawley in both of our tasting rooms for May and June of 2026. Her exhibition, titled “Piece Work,” features wood piece assemblages.  Creating them involves problem-solving, arranging, and finding the mystery in the newly created artwork. Barbara is an artist, teacher, and writer who received a Bachelor of Arts in Studio Arts with a minor in Art History from the University of Maryland.  She developed the first Artist-in-Residence Program at the University of Virginia’s Cancer Center, where she focused on the importance of creative self-expression.  She also started art programs for Virginia Neuro Care and Play Partners (a division of Children, Youth, and Family Services) in Charlottesville, Virginia.  Currently, Barbara is the artist-in-residence at MAD Arts in Madison, Virginia, where she teaches and exhibits her artwork.  She is interested in a wide variety of media, from drawing to watercolor, acrylic, collage, as well as jewelry, assemblage, photography, and more.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT: Art is not only a very important part of my life – it is my life.  It is my joy and expression.  It engages me and fulfills me.  It is my gift to share.
