Barbara Thornton Art

For 10 years I set up and operated the first quick sketch concession at Sesame PlaceAmusement Park in Langhorne, PA., I started with a staff of 1 other artist and when I left 10 years later I had 13 artists and 3 locations in the park. I have traveled all over the United States, Canada and Hawaii for my corporate clients doing caricatures.

Though I no longer do art shows, I have exhibited my pencil drawings, etchings and watercolors at art shows all over the country. I have illustrated 8 children’s books, all self published by their authors: Information on my children’s books and other artwork can be supplied on request.
