Ray BARRY (1931-2022) Thirty three giclee prints of differing designs Including work from his 'Towards Godrevy', and 'Guardian', some signed and titled in pencil, most 35cm x 43cm.Ray Barry loved Cornwall and art. A Director of the St Ives Society of Artists, appointed in 2010, and Associate of both the Newlyn and Penwith Society of Artists, Ray originally started painting in the 1950s while working for Cable and Wireless in the Sudan. He exhibited at the Red Sea Club, Port Sudan and The New Stanley Gallery, Nairobi as he began to cultivate his artistic talent. Subsequent to his career with Cable and Wireless, Ray settled in Cornwall and evolved his art style while scooping top prize as the winner of 3 Spires Arts Festival, Truro. He solo exhibited at Falmouth Arts Club, Penzance Arts Club, The Crypt Gallery St Ives, The Cornerstone Gallery St Ives, Bakehouse Gallery St Ives, as well as jointly exhibiting with fellow artists Jenny Woodhouse, Bob Devereux, Rachel Kantaris, Patricia Dearden, Stephen Dove, John Beer and Victor Bramley. An established artist locally by the 1990s, Ray Barry graduated Falmouth School of Art in 1997 (with other alumni graduating that year including Paul Wadsworth and Jenny Woodhouse), with a degree in Fine Art and had a studio in St Ives before relocating his studio to Ludgvan. An established fellow artist among his peers, a hand-written invite to Bryan Pearce’s 75th birthday lay amongst his treasured possessions. Ray Barry constantly strove to explore colour and textural values with passion, working primarily in oils and acrylics. Of his work, he quoted, “I enjoy creating order out of chaos and conversely 'deconstructing' order to the point of meaningful abstraction….I paint with a sense of adventure rather than premeditation…I love the poetics of Abstraction “. Away from his career as an artist, Ray was also a keen stamp collector with his talent and interests overlapping when he created, established and designed stamps for Gugh Island, Isles of Scilly, with the designs of these sold in our Stamps and Collectors auction earlier this year.

acrylic on board, signed, titled label verso framed and under glass image size 22cm x 22cm, overall size 34cm x 34cm Artist's label verso Note: Gail has always been a fan of unusual and imaginative art. As a child she discovered the paintings of Rodney Matthews and Roger Dean on album covers and posters, and admired their ability to create a whimsical version of ordinary things. At school, Salvador Dali was an artistic influence, and she was lucky enough to get up close to several of his paintings in the MoMA in New York. As a huge music fan, Gail briefly studied sound engineering after deciding she did not want to go to Art school (despite preparing a portfolio). However, she continued to paint while working and raising her two children, and decided to become a self-employed artist in 2011. For artworks where specific locations are featured, Gail uses photographs to help with initial building placement, but will manipulate and change the structures to provide the most pleasing composition. This manipulation is not only helpful when hiding some of the less attractive features of a scene, but allows her to enhance features which might normally be overlooked. Painting on either stretched canvas or canvas board, Gail will usually cover the whole area with a theme colour which dictates the overall mood of the finished piece. She will then sketch in the main features of the painting using pastel pencil, moving the lines with a wet paintbrush until the desired positioning is achieved. The painting is built up from there. Gail's work is exhibited widely at numerous galleries in Scotland.
