New Paintings on the Way!

I have completed several new larger paintings and some of these will be appearing here soon. Others will be in exhibitions mostly this year.

Happy New Year – and thank you!

Happy New Year to everyone! Keep an eye on this website for new entries in the coming few months.

I have recently joined Spalding Arts and Crafts Society and am looking forward to involvement with them.

Let’s hope the coming year will be better than the last – here’s hoping!

Thanks to all

Beginnings of Millennium Wood, Pinchbeck

© Copyright Francis Barker. Mixed media. About 505 x 405mm

I have been a member of the Woodland Trust for many years and so was very pleased that they planted a wood within half a mile of my house.

This mixed media painting was completed using sketches I made in July 2001. They had been lying about for ages until I came across them this year. Needless to say, due to the maturity of the wood, this view does not exist anymore!

Here’s one of the lastest efforts, in mixed media, mainly acrylic with a little oil here and there. If you would like to buy it, please contact me on francisbarkerart@gmail.com

Wells Next The Sea, Morning Colour

Image ©Copyright Francis Barker

The North Norfolk coast is one of my favourite subjects, as it is for many artists, both now and in the past. The harbour at Wells is a particular favourite, especially early morning, or late at night. Misty conditions are equally atmospheric.

This painting has been completed in acrylic on stretched canvas, about 605 x 455 mm. If you are interested in buying the painting, please contact me on francisbarkerart@gmail.com
