Michael Barnfather...Artist
One of England's leading landscape painters, Michael Barnfather was born at Ilkeston, Derbyshire. Michael studied at the Derby College of Art, 2 years later becoming a technical artist at Rolls Royce. While working for Rolls Royce Michael was pursuing his love of painting and began to plan for a career which was gradually determined by the acclaim given to his work at various amateur exhibitions and galleries Finally after a nine year 'apprenticeship' in the amateur field, Michael Barnfather felt confident to assume full professional status, which he achieved in 1964.
Intense, but with a quiet manner, Michael Barnfather is most caring about his work, and spends a great deal of time studying his subject and 'drinking in' the scene. Michael has an eye for the fitness of a picture and has applied his talent in the layout of his home and the gardens around his studio.
