Originally from Long Island, New York, Nancy Barry is an illustrator and
artist who studied Design at Nassau Community College, Garden City,
NewYork and Fine Arts at Buffalo State College in Buffalo.  She now calls
Greer, South Carolina home. 

Nancy first became enamored with watercolor at the age of 35, after taking a
workshop at the Mint Museum in Charlotte, where she and her husband were
raising their young family. She credits artist/instructor Nona Butterworth
with giving her a strong foundation in handling the medium. She has taken
classes and workshops with many fine artists since those early years and
continues to explore and stretch her skills.
