Full Sheet:16"X19.5".Barbara James’s BiographyBarbara James was born in the United Kingdom in the 1960s. Although her very earliest memories recall her love of the bright colours of poster paint and her anticipation of what she could achieve with them, as a young child she found art extremely difficult and did not really consider a career in the arts world until she became involved in set and costume design whilst completing her degree in Music, Dance and Drama. Her tutor picked up on a small series of sketches which she had prepared for the costumes for a production of Hamlet and his enthusiasm gave Barbara James the courage to begin to experiment with colours, textiles and artistic ideas. On leaving university, Barbara James made her career in the media, particularly in television, where she has made programmes for most of her professional life
