Barbara Burns first developed her delight in colours through private  lessons while growing up in Hamilton, near Gage Park. 

​

As a mature student, she obtained a BA, specializing in printmaking, in the Fine Arts Department at the University of Waterloo.  She had her own etching studio in Kingston, Ontario for many years. 

​

Barbara also paints in water colours and acrylics as well as experimenting with collage.

​

Barbara has sold her art in many galleries in Toronto, Ottawa, Kingston, and Gananoque and recently started to participate in art festivals in Dundas, Parry Sound and Kingston. Her art is in private collections both nationally and internationally.

 

Barbara's work has been accepted in juried shows across Canada and in Florida. Her work has been on the cover of the Whig-Standard Magazine three times and has been used for cards sold by the Schizophrenia Society and Read Write Centres Kingston Literacy.

 

Barbara continues to experiment and explore new techniques and ideas, expressing her love of colour and beauty first fostered as a child.
