Barry trained at Leeds College of Art and Cambridge College of Art before having a career as a graphic artist, cartoonist and illustrator. He is well known for his work on major TV productions and films and was the regular cartoonist for news and current affairs on YTV.

His latest work features his home city of Leeds and the nearby spa town of Harrogate. His paintings of the city at night have proven particularly popular.

Most of his work is painted in acrylic as the quick-drying properties of this medium suit his style of working – a legacy from his work as an illustrator and a graphic artist and the hectic schedules of the commercial art world.
