Barry DeBaun was born in 1956 in Brooklyn, NY, raised in Long Island and moved to the Catskill Mountains when he was ten. Smitten with the ocean in his early years and later by the mountains, Barry’s inspiration as an artist comes from his love of nature. Poetic landscapes, sensitive figures, realistically rendered still life and moody seascapes, place him as a true American Romanticist. Like the artists before him expressing the American dream, Barry conveys the spirit of optimism and the excitement of possibilities. Working in oils, Barry captures the Catskills and beyond, enriching one’s soul with peace and the natural beauty around us.
Barry’s work can be found in private collections and museums in the United States and Europe. He has received numerous awards from art organizations including the American Artists’ Professional League, the Salmagundi Club, Kent Art Association, Northeast Watercolor Society, Ridgewood Art Institute, and the Hudson Valley Art Association where he received the Gold Medal of Honor.
