Kaleidoscope Designs is the brainchild of classically trained painter, Barbara Barratt. We were founded in 1997 and have been owned and operated by an all female staff since the beginning. We have remained true to our small studio vision- hands on personal production overseen by an artists eye.

As a long time resident of Santa Fe, New Mexico Barbara has embraced the strong local aesthetic, often reinterpreting images in her own unique folk art style. Her colorful style is the result of years working in the arts as an illustrator, poster artist, and greeting card designer.

Since 1997 we have been blessed to do what we love in one of the most beautiful places in the world. It has been a longtime tradition for the staff to take an afternoon break everyday to enjoy each other and the gorgeous Santa Fe landscape. We are proud of our craftsmanship and are delighted to share it with you.

May it bring you much enjoyment!
