Katy Barrell, born in 1966 at Freedom Fields, grew up on a dairy farm on the North Cornwall Coast, where the landscape became second nature to her. She studied art at Half Acre, Boscastle, and Falmouth School of Art, earning a BA Hons Degree from Bradford and Ilkley School of Art and Design. While teaching in various schools, she continued painting and exhibiting. Her work, inspired by the land and its stories, is held in collections across the UK, Belgium, Luxembourg, California, Canada, and Australia.
