"Painting and drawing have always played an important role in my life and although largely self taught,
my semi professional career began painting alongside a group of extremely active artists in Cornwall
under the guidance of Mr Leonard Rollason. Known affectionately through the art trade as "Rolli" it was
he who mentored and kept me going through the early years of learning my trade."

Barry Hilton's is a story of continuing development - he was told that "selling and success are
synonymous" - should this be true, then he can certainly be called "successful". Barry Hilton's love
of nostalgia which he captures so well in his landscape paintings are much sought after and are
well represented in private galleries throughout the UK.
