BARBARA BAKER MCINTYRE
I have studied with many different artists in various media, all of this is brought to bear in each piece I work on. Creating assemblage is an adventure in engineering and utilizes many different skills and materials. I am fascinated with the new ideas and the connections that evolve through the use of vintage and used items.
Working with found objects, I use parts and pieces as other artists would use paints. This is not new; I follow in the footsteps of many fine artists before me, Pablo Picasso, Kurt Schwitters, Joseph Cornell, Robert Rauschenberg, and several more.
My work is about discovery…… of connections, the feelings and attachments we have to them.

Biography
BFA Degree from University California Santa Barbara, 1980
I am a full time artist working out of my home-based studio, when I am not hunting for objects or off with my Husband fishing.
I am the daughter of an artist mother and an inventor father. I grew up around Manufacturing, machine shops, carpenters and fabrication on many materials. As a result I am a mixed media artist working with many mediums constantly.
