Currently Margie is over 80 years old and has been a working artist for over half a century. She is listed in Artist of Texas, Vol. II, and her work has been exhibited at various locations throughout the South-west.

Her work has been sold in many Southwestern galleries from Arizo-na to Louisiana as well as across Texas from Dallas to South Padre Island. And now, J.R. Mooney Galleries is proud to represent her.

Margie Barker is inspired by her love of the land. She has painted everything from New Mexico aspens to the Grand Canyon’s majesty but it is to the flora and fauna of Texas that her brush irresistibly returns. Her oils, watercolors and acrylics have won her a host of awards, including Best of Show at the An Antonio River Art Show.

“Gold in the Hills”, a painting by Helotes artist Margie Barker, is a stoic

rendition of a Cactus bush with multiple leaves and blooming tundra that greet

the viewer in a cluster of desert beauty. The yellow and red flowers give grace

and joie de vivre to an otherwise prickly plant full of stubble that distinguishes

itself in many ways.

This typical Texas landscape is an elegant sophistication in a simplistic manner,

granting artistic clarity coupled with a certain unpretentious grandiose manner

that makes this painting so striking.
