Jasmine Barber

Jasmine is a modest portrait artist from Essex. She has refined her skills in the intricate art of pencil portraiture. Without any formal training, she embarked on a self-taught journey that continues to thrive and develop; like many artists, she is always seeking opportunities to grow, refine and improve her craft.

With a forte in creating realistic portraits, Jasmine is drawn to the nostalgia of old photographs. By capturing depth, emotion and unmistakable resemblance to her aged and cherished subjects, Jasmine’s joy in art comes from the connection realised from the viewer to their subject. In addition to her commissioned pieces, Jasmine explores the realm of celebrity art. With meticulous attention to detail, she immortalizes well-known figures, capturing their essence with a touch of her own unique style.

Jasmine tailors her approach to meet the specific vision and preferences of each commission; her focus is to create personalised representations that not only bring life to the piece, but also evoke joy and connection. 

Jasmine is proud of her artistic journey and believes that it can serve as a reminder that artistic skill and ability can be achieved not just through formal training, but also through self-belief and perseverance.
