There are a lot of talented artists in East Tennessee known for their landscapes, mountains, and flowers.  However, this artist will give you the impression that she "ain't from around here."  From her version of the world, you will find beautiful trees created in pencil with wild sea oats as leaves,  trunks and lamps covered with her art, butterflies in pen & ink, and wall sculptures. Barbara has designed fabric, created wall sculptures that are hanging in offices and homes around the country, built beautiful homes(she was a residential contractor for 12 years) and created such extraordinary designs in embroidery that Plaid took a interest in her.  I am still working on a bathing suit design made out of these and I know people like me will have to have one.

Growing up with her as a mother, encouraged me to see the world differently.  This isn't the first time I have tried to present her work to others(I still have scars on my ankles from wearing shoes that were too small while presenting her portfolio to shop owners in Gatlinburg.) However, this is the first time, I have had the knowledge and equipment to present to the world. I hope you enjoy and remember, Barbara does custom work, so send us an e-mail at and ask.
