Paintings by Diane Barker

I love painting. I love designing. I want to make the world a little bit brighter by creating images that affect and influence people and that tell a story.
I began my professional career designing and illustrating for a number of magazines. My itchy feet took me to Spain where I lived for 6 years and set up a design studio specializing in corporate ID and publishing. Back in the UK I took on a new challenge, to become a secondary school teacher (D&T). After 13 years in education, with the last 6 in the role of Head of Department, I was ready to jump back into the world of illustration & design.
So, here I am, back working from my home studio in West Yorkshire. I undertake commissions, graphic design projects and have my own greeting card ranges. My finished artwork is created mainly in gouache but I also love using water-colour, pencil , pencil crayon, Adobe Illustrator and photography. You can find me at www.dianebarker.com
