Barbara Richards

Barbara Richards is a British artist who studied at Hammersmith College of Art and the Royal College of Art (oh to study there!). She told us that her love for textile/fibre art, embroidery, and quilt art came after leaving the UK to live in Italy where she worked as a guide in tourism for a living using her knowledge of Italian, French Spanish and German.

Edinburgh Fringe Textile Art

Edinburgh Fringe Festival is well known for its comedy and theatre, but is it worth checking out for its art? Believe it or not, the amount of textile art you will find will surprise you! Why not plan your own visit each summer to check out the array of art galleries and shows which pop up with many talented artists.
