Harrisburg Magazine Feature, Recent Award

	B. Passeri Warfel was one of four artists featured in a Harrisburg Magazine article on artists and their work spaces.
	A self-described portrait specialist, Barbara Passeri-Warfel is just as comfortable creating beautiful still-life compositions with fruits from her garden. A graduate of Rowan University, Warfel now experiments with techniques in oils and glazes that allow her to be "...More innovative with ideas. I don't work from a defined concept...I let the piece take me where it will." That verve brought her to this year's Harrisburg Symphony's Painted Violin Auction fundraiser. Her submission is autographed by world reknowned violinist Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg. Go to Harrisburgsymphony.org/paintedviolin for details. Barbara was honored with a 2006 Spectrum Award for Excellence in the Arts for her teaching of art education programs for senior adults in assisted living who want to learn more about art. "Art is about a 'living experience,'" Warfel says. "Sharing my love for art is a joy." from Harrisburg Magazine December 2006		click image to enlarge it
