Barry Willcox

Barry Willcox, an Australian artist, draws inspiration from his extensive geological career and adventurous journeys through Australia's landscapes. With a background in geology and years of exploration in the Australian outback and abroad, Barry has developed a profound connection to the natural world. Whether in the field or within his Wandiligong, Victoria studio, he devoted his free time to art. Initially, he excelled as a watercolourist, but his powerful pastel works have gained him considerable recognition.

Barry's artistic talent has earned him numerous awards in exhibitions throughout the Snowy Mountains, Canberra, and outback Queensland. His art has found homes in galleries such as Kunama Galleries, the Raglan and Little Hain Galleries, and the Bright Art Gallery. Alongside these solo exhibitions, he has also participated in various group shows. Barry is married to fellow artist Annemarie Wiegerinck. After spending two decades in the Cooma area of the Australian Alps, the couple relocated to Bright, Victoria, where Barry's continues to paint
