Mouton aux longs poils (2014) Dessin par Barbara Guias

Barbara Guias, born in 1962 in Paris, started her interest in art when she arrived in the eighties at 20 years old in New York, USA. 

Ten years there raising two children let her experiment drawing at Art Students League, children and humorous illustration at School of Visual Arts and at Parson's School of Design. 

Back in Paris, she went for clay modeling from a live model with Gérard Gauduchon, then for engraving with Fabien Lesaint at Beaux Arts de Paris and finally for oil painting the Rembrandt 's way with Edgar Saillen in Montreuil. There, she loved working portraits and figure painting.

During Covid, she went back to Art Students League on line with Dominique Medici, a widely rewarded american portraitist based in Seattle, USA.

She became professional nine years ago and is presently open to portrait commissions. 

She lives most of the time in Brittany where she enjoys and paints the beauty of the nature around her, in a secluded place close to the sea.
