Barnard was born in Bengal, where her father was serving with the Indian Police Force. At the age of seven she returned to Britain for her education, and went to Bath High School, and St. Leonard's Fife.[1]
The couple lived in Italy for several years, and later they moved to Rye.
During the Second World War she was an ambulance driver, cultivated an allotment and bred rabbits; she resumed painting after the end of the war, and continued to exhibit at the Royal Academy until her death.[1]
In 1990 she made a bequest of her own works and her husband's, as well as their personal collection of works by other artists, to the Rye Art Gallery.[3]
Barnard died in 1992.
