Barbara Howrey is a Fishers, Indiana watercolorist and fluid artist who began painting with watercolor in 1993 and fell in love with the movement and surprise of fluid art in 2021. Her work is rooted in color, flow, and creative experimentation—often balancing intuition with playful structure. In addition to abstract fluid paintings, Barbara repurposes leftover acrylic paint from her pouring process to create one-of-a-kind jewelry, bookmarks, and small art pieces. This allows her to reduce waste while offering art in a variety of sizes and price points. Barbara is also a teacher and guide for creative self-care. She leads fluid art and art journaling experiences throughout the Indianapolis area and is the creator of A Garden for the Soul Art Journal. She hosts the podcast Art Journaling for Calm & Self-Care and facilitates The Joy of Journaling Circle, an online community where members use simple prompts and creative practice to reconnect with themselves. Barbara’s goal is to make creativity feel approachable—inviting people to explore color, calm, and self-expression one page (or pour) at a time.
