Art by Arne Barker
Arne is a self-taught artist living in Wiltshire, Arne’s art work is predominantly landscape and he also enjoys exploring elements of surrealism in his work. Sadly Arne was diagnosed with a rare bone disease in both his knees and feet called Avascular Necrosis, this has put an end to his love of the outdoor country life. In coping with his disability and discomfort, he returned to his art and brushes.

I have a work signed by arne (lower lefthand corner). It is a painting of a barn scene, mostly in reds/oranges/dark green. Could this possibly be a work of yours?
Hi Cathleen,
Thanks for leaving a comment. Sadly I don’t recognise your picture as one of my works, I either sign Arne B and year, or Arne Barker and year, normally at the bottom right. I am sure you will find the right Arne 🙂
Regards,
Arne
