Barbara Bunsey
About the Artist
Barbara has been creative since the age of five, when her mom taught her how to embroider. She discovered decorative painting in the 80’s and, although she still creates in other artforms, painting is her passion. When she’s painting, the stress flows out of her body and she has a sense of peace. Each brush-stroke becomes a kind of mantra, bringing life and calm.
Barbara is published in major decorative painting magazines and ezines, has taught at conventions and retreats in the northeast and mid-west, and has sold her painted designs across the northeast and mid-west, including Colonial Williamsburg.
In 2008, Barbara was chosen to paint 1,000+ ornaments that President and Mrs. Bush used as gifts to family, friends, and White House staff. She attended a reception at the White House hosted by President and Mrs. Bush, along with two friends who helped with small tasks in the “ornament journey”.
In 2017 Barbara was awarded the distinction of Accredited Decorative Painter (ADP) and in 2018 she was awarded her Certified Decorative Artist (CDA) distinction by The Society of Decorative Painters.

Webinar Info
How Webinars Work
All webinars are LIVE, interactive, and virtually through Zoom.
Once registered for a webinar, students receive an email confirmation with a CHECK LIST they will need to follow PRIOR to the date of the session. More often than not, artists provide prep instructions to be completed before the start of class.
Students will need to refer to their Confirmation Email to access digital instructions, line drawings, and to launch the Zoom Classroom when it opens on the day of class.
Students should attempt to enter the Zoom Classroom 30 minutes prior to the start of class. If a student is unable to access the Zoom Classroom, they should call the Support Team at (603) 420-8794. They should NOT email or PM via social media platforms if they’re trying to enter a Zoom Classroom.
Skill Level Varies
While most classes are skilled for Intermediate to Advance, please check projects individually for skill level information.
Materials & Tools
Class registrations open approximately 8 weeks prior to the date of the class. This is to provide students ample time to order any supplies required for the project. Some artists may choose to provide surfaces and/or kits for an additional fee.
Additionally, artists may include prep work within their instructions. Any prep work will be noted clearly within instructions and students will be expected to complete any prep work prior to the start of class.
Refunds, Exchanges, & Credits
There are NO REFUNDS. In accordance to the Terms & Conditions, which students are required to agree to prior to submitting payment, refunds will not be given.
Students must check their personal calendars for any conflicts PRIOR to registering for a webinar. Refunds will not be granted if you are unable to attend, as instructions for the project are provided immediately after registration and the majority of our webinars offer a Video Replay for 30 days after the class.
There are NO EXCHANGES! Meaning, students will not be permitted to exchange one webinar for another, nor will they be given permission to exchange the same webinar for a different date if a repeat date becomes available. *Please see our information about the new waitlist feature below.
Credit will NOT be given to registered students who are not able to attend a webinar. Students will still have access to the instructions and Video Replay (if offered) for up to 30 days.
About Our NEW Waitlist
A waitlist will immediately go into effect if/when a webinar sells out. Those students registered for the original date will NOT be permitted to switch/move dates. More information will be emailed to those waitlisted if/when a seat and/or new date becomes available. Being waitlisted does NOT guarantee a seat in the original class date. Waitlists will close within one month of the webinar’s scheduled date.
**Do NOT register for both dates and proceed to ask for the credit from one of the webinars. If we find this happening, we will remove the waitlist feature.**
