Biography
About the Artist Barbara has little in the way of formal training and has spent the better part of her working life in the field of accounting. She was first introduced to pastels in 2005 and there was no looking back. Suddenly, she had a passion. In May 2006 she left her corporate position to take the summer off and re-invent or at least re-assess her life. And that she did! She started painting in earnest and has not stopped. |
