As you explore these artworks, you will be transported to a realm of serenity and tranquillity. Each brushstroke is a testament to my deep connection with the ocean, the beach, and the vast expanse of the sky above. Titled 'Above the Salt,' this exhibition is an invitation to contemplate the profound moments of respite and renewal that can be found in the embrace of nature's wonders.
Within these paintings, you will discover serene scenes of calm skies, where billowing clouds dance gracefully in hues of pinks and coral. The peaceful seas beckon you to immerse yourself in their soothing embrace, offering a moment of escape from the tumultuous tides of life. Low tide beaches reveal treasures of their own, inviting you to wander along their shores, feeling the warmth of the sand beneath your feet.
Summer means different things to each of us. For some it is a time to escape, to forget the humdrum routine of everyday life, pack the bags, round up the dogs and children, and head for the beach – or the hills! - for a few weeks of sun, fun and frolics. For others it is a more reflective time; a time to heal, to restore, to let nature take over and return our bodies and minds to good health, ready to face the challenges that lie ahead.
In this year’s exhibition Barry presents a collection that particularly portrays the nurturing aspect of summer in the South Hams, capturing the unique nature of this beautiful area which never fails to lift the spirit and heal the soul. His paintings are once again full of light, sun and warmth but they are also full of hope and an appreciation of the world around us, creating a sense of inner peace and calm.
