Gwen Barringer

Gwen Barringer was a South Australian artist, known for her watercolours. Barringer was noted for watercolours of flowers and landscapes, to which she invested a fairyland-like glamour and remained immune to trends and changing fashions. She is represented in the State galleries of South Australia and Victoria, and the National Gallery, Canberra. Barringer studied at the South Australian School of Arts and Crafts under H. P. Gill, Archibald Collins and Hans Heysen. She was a council member of the South Australian Society of Arts for over 30 years, and was also well known as a teacher.
