Barry, Jo - Biography
 
 
Jo Barry obtained a BA in Fine Art from Ravensbourne College in Art and Design in Kent. She was a visiting lecturer at Byam Shaw School of Fine Art, North London until 1981 when she gave up teaching to concentrate full time on hr own work. Jo's talents led her to etching as the principal means of artistic expression, although this has not precluded water colours and pencil drawings. Jo enjoys a considerable reputation in the art world and now ranks as one of the finest living etchers. Her skill led to election as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers, followed by Honorary Secretary to the Society and currently Vice-President. Jo's studio is at home in the New Forest, Hampshire, where she lives with her Husband and son plus, five cocker spaniels. The forest provides Jo with a great deal of inspiration for her work which depicts nature and her beloved English countryside. A successful exhibitor at Royal Academy exhibitions, Jo also displays at galleries around the United Kingdom and in the United States where her work is very much admired.
