“Essentia Health recently purchased a commissioned piece of artwork from Barbara Westfall who was asked to create a piece that complimented the newly finished Clinic lobby that also coordinated with existing artwork. Barbara was able to incorporate appropriate colors and natural elements that created a positive backdrop to the new Information Desk. Her ability to incorporate smooth melted glass and sanded branches bring an interest in layering and composition like no other. Patients and staff comment on the depth of texture yet softness of color variation in the piece. This original piece of art will be treasured as a focal point that reflects the natural environment around Lake Superior that so many can relate to.”
