This is a playful image. The theme is simple. Groupings of random and unrelated objects tied together by a similar color hue. It seems unbelievable that so many objects share the same hue. I had even more blue objects to work with but didn't use the ones that were either more magenta(purple) or more green(aqua). One other theme working here is anthropomorphism or the use of human like traits in combining objects.

 "Blue Ocean" has been exhibited in solo and group shows in the New York area.

‘Found in Nature’ is a series of beautiful compositions that tell compelling stories about beach-trash. Barry collects previously discarded junk along the coastal areas of New York Harbor then curates and orders the objects by color, type and/or theme.
