MEET THE OWNER

Joshua Barr

Meet our President and Founder, Josh Barr, the driving force behind our commitment to transforming spaces with precision and care. A proud Kansas native, Josh grew up in Eudora, where he graduated from Eudora High School in 2005. His pursuit of knowledge led him to Topeka in 2007, where he not only attended Washburn University but also planted the roots of Graystone Painting. Beyond his commitment to crafting beautiful spaces, Josh is an engaged member of the Topeka community, honored as a member of TK Business Magazine's prestigious Top 20 Under 40 class of 2019. He's a proud participant in the 2030 Club of Topeka and a member of the Arab Shrine, embodying our belief in giving back to the communities in which we serve. College wasn't just about studies for Josh; it's where he met his college sweetheart, Tessa. Now, with three beautiful children—Adaline, Eldon, and their newest addition, Arden—Josh's commitment extends beyond paintbrushes to the cherished moments of family life.
