“Artists can be inspired by a variety of driving forces, but sometimes it’s something as simple as the Natural Beauty surrounding them that takes their work to a whole new level.” 

World renowned Oregon sculptor, Barry Stein has creations gracing the most prestigious art collections around the world. Displayed in the Pentagon, Barry’s sculptures have been presented by our Government’s Executive Branch as gifts for Heads of State. His work is presently on display in the Waldorf Astoria Hotel New York City, The New York Hilton Hotel, New York Essex House, Hyatt Regency, The Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, and fine art galleries in the United States as well as Europe.

Sharing the beauty of Mother Nature is the focus behind the works of Barry Stein. His unique carvings depicting beautiful wildlife highlight his sensitivity and demonstrate his appreciation of all that is Nature. A self taught artist from the Pacific Northwest, Barry continually challenges himself with various artistic medium. With a clear understanding of the animal’s behavior and anatomy, Barry blends his artistic talents with the intrinsic beauty of wood to create a stunning composition.

He spends countless hours in the wild researching and collecting material that inspires his intense love for nature. Barry’s latest focus has evolved into transforming the exquisite sense of wood into bronze using the lost cast method. He feels wood lends much greater detail than clay.

Through his innate love of wildlife and creative mastery, Barry has emerged as one of the Pacific Northwest’s premier artists.
