Raised in Hamilton, New Zealand, Barbara discovered through her experiences in nursing, pastoral care and burnout that it’s vital for us to be replenished and refreshed.

'Oasis: Soul Refreshing,’ was born out of her recovery period.

"I was on a pilgrimage — an inner journey. The barrenness of my soul was raw. I was thirsty. I longed for water; an oasis. I searched the scriptures about water, fountains, springs and oases. I stood with the Samaritan woman at the well and imagined my response as Yeshua Messiah/Jesus engaged me in dialogue. I asked Him to woo me into a more intimate relationship; for His Living Water to replace the stagnant areas of my being with His Life-giving fountains and springs.

Yeshua quenched my spiritual thirst. Creativity was unleashed.

I love words, especially puns, being strongly influenced by my paternal heritage. I’m painting pictures with words, and giving images a voice.

Come journey with me." - Barbara
