More About Misia
Misia is a contemporary artist who will amaze you with her mesmerizing paintings and imaginary personal vision in the charming and historic town of Middleburg, VA. She shares The Broadhead-Barham Studio with her husband Anthony Barham who is also a painter and restorer of old master paintings.
Misia was born in Washington, DC, and was raised in Italy, where a wealth of art and architecture had a profound influence on her imagination and propensity to tell vivid visual stories. She attended Italian, French, English, and American schools, eventually studying in London at The Byam Shaw School of Drawing and Painting. She applied her studies to the art of illustrating and writing children’s stories, which evolved into painting. Oil painting became her primary medium of expression for which she expresses the narrative of images and symbols representing unconscious processing of experiences, emotions, and hidden meanings revealed to the observer’s individual sense of perception.
Her artwork has been displayed across Italy and the DC area, including at The Inn At Little Washington, the Middleburg Antique Gallery and the Antique Gallery Roger on Madison St. in Middleburg (her husband Anthony’s art prints can also be found there), as well as the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC.
She and her husband also paint commissions for private homes, commercial shops, and restaurants.
Misia’s maternal grandmother, Gladys Tartiere, owned Gen-Ora Farm that originally had been built by Noble Beveridge, who owned The Red Fox Inn in Middleburg. Her grandmother owned the table that the Treaty of Paris was signed upon and later donated it to the U.S. State Department. Her grandmother rented Glen-Ora to President Kennedy between 1961 and 1963, as Jacqueline Kennedy insisted on the choice of this property to keep her horses in their stables and ride in the hunt.
When Misia’s grandmother Gladys passed, her mother and she inherited the property and took up residence at Glen-Ora until 2016. Misia’s paternal grandfather was Smithson Broadhead, the sporting painter who painted the horse that won the first million.
