Barbara Mac Intosch

Discover the vibrant world of BMAC, where art meets inspiration! I am Barbara Mac Intosch, a Dutch-born artist who has called Suriname home for the past 25 years. Suriname’s breathtaking nature and diverse cultures have become the heart of my artistic journey.

My canvas reflects the beauty of this land, its people, and their rich tapestry of traditions. Suriname, with its myriad of cultures, delicious cuisine, lush landscapes, and colorful attire, constantly fuels my creativity.

Having studied at the local academy, I have dedicated myself to full-time painting. My muse? The surroundings I call home, nestled in the heart of a picturesque district with stunning natural beauty.

My passion lies in portraying dark-skinned women, particularly through colorful headscarves, capturing their essence and vibrancy in my portraits. Yet, my art knows no boundaries—I explore abstracts and various subjects.

I also welcome commissions, bringing your unique ideas to life on canvas. No matter where you are in the world, I’ll ensure your masterpiece reaches you, packaged with care and creativity.
