Jesse Barnes, the original light painter
I would love to introduce you to Jesse Barnes, Missouri Artist. My husband, a coach, has developed a passion for Jesse's art works. We have five paintings in our living room alone. Jesse Barnes' career has spanned over four decades. He is a self-taught painter and specializes in "Early American Nostalgia". I think the subjects that Jesse Barnes paints is why my husband fell in love with his paintings. They bring back a yearning for a simpler time.
Our first Jesse Barnes Painting
God's Promise
The first painting Dan ever bought was "God's Promise". It is a wonderful picture of an old time church set in the country with a backdrop of a rainbow. I could look at this one for hours!

Jesse Barnes Paintings
The Owl
One of Jesse Barnes trademarks is the owl. He paints an owl in every picture. One print, Indian Summer, has two owls. Only four of Jesse's early limited edition prints do not have an owl in them: The Night Before Christmas, Memories, Church in the Wildwood, and The Burning Tree. Jesse Barnes Paintings
The Light Painter
Jesse is known as The Light painter because he paints highly-detailed oil paintings that show scenic lighting effects, and transport
the viewer into another place and time. All of his paintings light up when an overhead light spotlights his painting. We try to only display his art with a light--the difference between a non-lighted painting and a lighted painting is phenomenal.
