Barry  is a UK based Welsh Artist born in Merthyr Tydfil and currently residing and working near the market town of Hay-On-Wye in the Welsh Marches. His work is currently focusing on a collection of contemporary atmospheric Welsh Landscapes employing an alchemy of inks, pigments, solutions, soot, ash, charcoal, tannin, metal powders, graphite and anything else that happens to fall in his path . . . 

"I fully admit to ‘ most ‘ of my explorations ending with myself and an embarrassing amount of ruined paper laying in a soggy blackened heap in the corner ! I am forever grasping at shadows , waiting for the faint outline of a hill or bank of trees to emerge from the chaos and disorder of my alchemy of solutions , and all too often loosing it again as it dries and moves past that perfect point I was chasing !“
