Michael Barber

artist . designer . folker

 

Growing up in Tobacco country and working the fields has certainly made me who I am. Early mornings and long days pretty much summed up summer vacation. The money was good, the work was hard and the memories are still with me today. I'm excited to launch Genuine Folker Brand inspired by life in Norfolk County and the icons that decorate the landscape. No matter where you've been... when you see the kilns, you know you're home.
