Stacy Barter is a nationally-acclaimed Florida Artist. Stacy Barter’s lived the artist’s dream of painting full-time for almost 30 years. She holds a degree in Journalism and left an advanced career in marketing/advertising in 1996 to joyously pursue her career as an artist instead.  

Passionate to paint all she can from life, she greatly enjoys the variety of painting the figure, still life – particularly floral, as well as en plein air. She regularly exhibits in national and regional exhibitions and has won numerous awards. She is a Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America, the American Impressionist Society, the National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society, and the American Artists’ Professional League (AAPL).

Her enthusiasm and passion for painting, laughter, and sharing her knowledge with others has made her workshops and classes a popular choice.
