Artist Profile Marilda Weatherhead Biography I was born in Venezuela and moved to Barbados in the late 1960's. Although coming from a family background of artists, I never gave art a try until I was introduced in 1987 to the Newcomers Art Group under the tuition of Indrani Whittingham. I've been painting with the group since then, this has become a passion. My mediums are oils and soft pastels and enjoy a variety of subjects; ballerinas, banana trees and people, being some of my favourites. It is with great pleasure I introduce you to this on line art gallery from Barbados.
