Barbara McCann Biography

Barbara McCann began her artistic endeavors with drawing as a child, and then with painting in her teenage years. Upon graduating from high school, she took a four-year apprenticeship in architectural illustration and design, which set the stage for a career in commercial art. McCann moved to Florida in 1973, and for the next 20 years ran her own architectural illustration studio.

Between 1973 and 1993, Barbara McCann explored a variety of mediums and methods for landscape and portrait painting. In the early to late seventies, she studied oils with acclaimed figure painter Marilyn Bendell as well as with renowned artists Valfred Thelin and Charles Reid.

Barbara discovered the works of Nicola Simbari whose whose vision and style served as inspirationhas been an enduring inspiration for McCann.  She melded her fine art talents with her commercial work by painting architectural renderings in watercolors, which caused a sensation among her clients.

In the mid-eighties, McCann returned to oils as the primary medium for her noncommercial art, utilizing watercolors solely for sketches of landscapes and people. Her skills in art and architectural illustration led to an appointment as an instructor with the Ringling College of Art & Design. From 1983 to 1993.  Barbara taught classes in perspective drawing and illustration at the Florida college, which is rated as one of the finest art schools in the United States. She developed an approach to the intrinsically difficult study of perspective that made it comprehensible and useful to even novice artists.

Over the course of her career, McCann has steadily expanded both her commercial and fine art clienteles. The interest in Barbara's paintings led her to establish a gallery in Sarasota, Florida, and in the early nineties she signed with a large publisher and gallery chain in the United States. Then in 1995, she secured representation with Fingerhut Group Publishers.

The fine art works by Barbara presented below objectify her derived from frequent and extensive trips to

the Caribbean, the West Indies, Central America, Greece, and Europe.
