Allison Barkley grew up in Stratford, Ontario, Canada, just a few doors from the Stratford Shakespearean Festival, where she spent many imaginative days. In her early twenties she migrated west to Victoria, British Columbia, where she resided for a few years before packing and moving up north to the Yukon. She lived there as a pioneer woman and taught art classes at an elementary school, on reserve, in Lower Post, BC. After a few years in the Yukon, she travelled Canada for about a year, before slowly making her way back west.
Allison has been a figure painter for over ten years and has shown her work in galleries in Victoria and Vancouver. She is strongly influenced by the expressionists of the second world war. Allison is also a short film-maker and has done several small projects, mainly in the north.
Now residing on the Sunshine Coast, she has just finished her first EP and it can be purchased through the link at left. With the ever-widening audience that her music is reaching, she is pleased to be offering free global shipping.
Dear Allison I wanted to say Thanks for adding me-I am so sincerely Happy and Honour to be Your friend! It's wonderful to be here and to enjoy the beauty of your music and your friendship. You're so absolutely magnificent and amazingly talented! Let the weekend be as kind and gentle to You as can possibly be. Stay as beautiful as You are, and may God continue to Bless You & Family. Always Your Antoine D
