About the Artist

Barker Malcolm

Malcolm Barker is a farmer and artist who paints the animals on his farm and local landscapes. He paints outdoors through the winter months while selling the potatoes from his farm at his market stall in local auction marts. All of his paintings are made in oils because they are better suited to be made during a Yorkshire winter.
