Drawings Paintings Wood Turning Dolls Houses Barry Skinner

For as long as he can remember, Barry has drawn and painted. His inspiration for the past twenty years has been the evocative landscape of Snowdonia, along with many other parts of the British Isles, particularly Cornwall, the west coast of Ireland and Northumberland.

More recently he has been captivated by the coastal wonders of Pembrokeshire and has produced many works which have earned him an enthusiastic following in that county.

His drawings are mainly pen/ink and wash, and his main painting medium, acrylic. In addition to painting, Barry has a reputation as a skilled and creative wood-turner.

And if that isn't enough to keep him busy, he also designs and creates bespoke 1/12th dolls houses, each individually made to the client's requirements.

Barry's extraordinary talents extend to the performing arts and in particular the British Folk scene where he was active from the late 1950's, singing professionally from 1964 up to the present day.
