About Barbara McGivern
- Barbara McGivern (born August 15, 1945), also known as The Gold Lady, is a Canadian artist born in Toronto, Ontario.

- The series was inspired by her trips through deserts of Oman and Saudi Arabia, when she began incorporating the use of gold leaf (18 to 24 carat) into her work.
- Her style is most notable for presenting gold as a colour rather than as a precious metal.
- Her paintings are in private and corporate collections in Canada, Europe and the Middle East.
