Barnes raised four children before turning her full attention to art. She studied at the Sidney Cooper School of Art, Canterbury, and at Heatherley's. In 1936 Garlick became a pupil of Walter Richard SICKERT in Thanet, Kent, and exhibited with him at Margate (Buckman). She moved to Cornwall an the outbreak of WWII, where she lived in Karenza Cottage, Hellesvean, St Ives and worked from The Loft Studio.
She was an active member of the NSA, and served on the Hanging Committee. Her interest in the arts, including those of the garden and poetry as well as painting, continued to the end of her life. Her twin sons, both strongly interested in the history of film-making, ran a Theatre Museum in St Ives for many years, and published books on the subject of Victorian Cinema.

The painting dates to the late 1980s when Sargy and his family were living at 58 Lyndhurst Grove, SE15. Sadly by this time, Sargy's eyesight had greatly deteriorated to ‘“a very little, blurry, peripheral vision” in his left eye, (he was registered blind)....(he) found it a struggle to paint from direct observation and began to rely on short term memory and tape recordings. Working on a large scale, he taped canvas to the living room wall of the family home on Lyndhurst Grove, “rather as Bonnard had pinned primed canvas to his studio wall”’. The space depicted had initially been a dark, depressing attic space but this was transformed by the addition of some French windows. The painting has an almost abstracted quality with the two light sources creating pools of cool, luminescent energy radiating throughout the picture space. Peter Mann describes the paintings from Lyndhurst Grove as, ‘in some sense a precursor to the very late work, The little sitting room paintings...Category
