About the Artist

Veronica Barker-Barzel is a painter and a printmaker. There is a strong connection and interplay between her paintings and her printmaking works. Her style is often reflective of the places that she has experienced and stimulated by her personal background. Her work can resonate with a bit of Eastern European folklore, Greek mythology, and occasionally fused with her own version of urban surrealism.

Veronica received her Bachelor’s in liberal arts from the University of Maryland, University College and post-graduate work at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA).

In addition to being active in shows and exhibitions around the DC Washington metro area, Baker-Barzel has exhibited in Japan, Cabo Verde, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. She recently had a solo show at The Art League in Alexandria. In 2016, Veronica joined Printmakers Inc. in the Torpedo Factory. In 2017, she was juried into Torpedo Factory Artists’ Association. She has been teaching printmaking techniques for Discover Graphics since 2018.
