CHARTER GALLERY 57 WEST MEMBER & ANNAPOLIS ARTS ALLIANCE BOARD MEMBER
Barbara Merson Burns
Barbara Burns is a local artist from Severna Park. On her 60th birthday, her husband gave her a gift certificate to take a painting class at Maryland Hall for the Arts in Annapolis, MD. She decided on a Flowers in Watercolor class with Erica Walsh, an internationally renowned watercolorist. She had no idea what to expect. Well, due to this amazing teacher, person, and mentor, she literally took to watercolor like a duck to water! She was hooked from the first moment.
She has been painting for over 20 years and has studied with many wonderful teachers. She also works in colored pencil, pen and ink, pastel, and mixed media. But her first love is watercolor. Her subject matter includes flowers, wildlife, landscapes, and animals. She has a
line of Birthday Flower of the Month cards.
Many of my watercolor images are also available as 5×7 cards, including holiday cards.
