It was in 1967 however that an invitation from a Thai friend in Cornwall led her to Bangkok. She visited Thailand on several occasions, discovering a foundry able to cast her works in bronze. Many bronzes Barbara produced in the 1970s were of Malinee, the daughter of friends in Thailand and an ideal model for Barbara.
