Born in Newcastle upon Tyne, Barber moved to Birmingham in the 1770s. In 1798 he was appointed to teach drawing at the Free Grammar School holding classes in his studio. By the mid-1880s he was well established as the town's first drawing master, with an academy training artists, his pupils included David Cox, William Radclyffe and Samuel Lines. His work consists largely of drawings and watercolours of rustic landscape scenes - including pictures of North Wales, which he was the first of many Birmingham artists to paint. His works feature in the collections of the British Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum and Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
