Please email with questions, kathleenbarrett@marionette.com

 

Kathleen Barrett grew up in Chicago and now works in Shipston-on-Stour, England.

Her figurative painting and multi cultural subjects have led to working alongside

theatre and opera companies,

portraying their productions from rehearsal through final performances.

This includes a complete Wagner Ring Cycle series of paintings and

drawings from the Vienna opera.

She also founded The Shakespeare Marionette Company and has created

marionettes for Macbeth and A Midsummer's Nights Dream.

The work ranges from large oil paintings, to miniatures in egg tempera,

 to wall size drawings on paper, to digital computer artwork.
