Fighting through despair after death and loss, Barbara – while renting a cottage from Al Jardine of The Beach Boys – struggles to craft a new normal and rekindle her creative fervor.
“Artists have it in them to absorb and feel the depth of despair, and also to walk, with the viewer’s hand in ours, to imagined wonders that resonate with hope.”

BARBARA SPARHAWK: In Her Own Words
An Autobiographical Remembrance

Joyful, creative woman dies alone, body unclaimed for weeks, a toe tag her only companion.
“Look how fast we all vanish, even the most flamboyant, important, precious to any life, gone so fast.”

(II) Woman For All Seasons
Before she was a toe tag, Barbara was evangelical about living a vibrant, multi-faceted bohemian life.
“As far as I could see a checkered career was about the best thing on earth. I could live my life as I saw fit, and the more checkers the better!”
🙂 🙂 🙂
