Biography:	I was born in a small Southeast Texas town called Groves,Texas.I married at an early age and raised 3 children while working a full time job at a bank.In 1978, I took my first art lesson to fill up a class at my sister-in-laws art and frame shop. It's all history now, as it was just the beginning of my great passion for art. In 1988 and 1989 I was fortunate to paint in a week long workshop with Texas artist Dalhart Windberg. I also took a drawing class from Northlight Art School and received a diploma. Since I began selling on Ebay in May 1999, I have sold over 900 hundred paintings. I want to thank all of my collectors... Thank you for allowing me to pursue my passsion for art. Awards received: 1st place 1995 Port Arthur Art League 2nd place 1995 Port Arthur Art League 3rd place 1996 Port Arthur Art League 1st place 1995 Port Arthur Art League 1st place 1997 Port Arthur Art League 1st place 2003 Nederland Art League In 1993, I quit my bank job and started traveling with my husband of 42 years.We traveled as far as New York State and many other beautiful states. I became fascinated with the awesome scenery. My favorite places to paint are the swamps and bayous of Louisiana. In my paintings, I try to capture the serene peaceful beauty of the bayous. I am a versatile artist: painting landscapes, florals. portraits, murals and commissions. I even painted a large door that was made into a headboard for a bed. Since 1998,I have sold over 800 paintings on Ebay. Some of my clients have said: "Beauty is in Barb's hands and her heart". Others have said they will become collectors of her paintings and that she does incredible work.
