In Loving Memory of
Mavra Barley
my dear friend from my teen years

Artist, Dancer, Gemini

Died in 1969
after Psychiatric electro shock treatments and a subsequent history of health difficulties which finally ended her life allegedly with skin cancer in her early years.

I will always remember her as a mysterious and fun loving personality. Her persistence with developing her artistic skills was relentless. Her gentle personality, her studies into the occult and magick and appreciation for so many interesting studies on human nature stood her away from all that many thought of as "normal" in the 1960s.  It is sad to realise no one has made any effort to preserve her life's work and play for posterity. Collecting it now may be a most daunting task. She was ahead of her time too. Sometimes she preferred to be known as Deon Barkley
