Testimonial

It is my pleasure to write a recommendation for Mr. Barry Wingard.  Having worked several years in the field of interior design; I can without reservation have confidence in his work.  His impeccable eye in the area of design and execution is undeniable when you see the finished product. There is no room for flaw.  In the area of architecture, you simply have to see visually beyond what the outcome will be.  When you see Barry’s work you see that vision come to reality.

As an artist Barry has the innate ability to make you feel his art. There is no greater gift; than to look at a piece of art and immediately feel a sense of peace. That is exactly what he has the ability to do. Exceptional!

Whatever your project is you can rest assured that you will receive the best you can get in his expertise of the field!

Sincerely Without Reservation,

If you’ve seen any of Barry’s work, you know it is near perfection. He can create a finish, transform a room, design a space, paint a portrait, capture a scene, detail a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture, anything that speaks art or design he can create it.

I consider Barry L. Wingard’s creations in any genre he creates to always give off a high end, traditional look with an added twist of modern to compliment any of his creations be it paintings, interior design or gilding, whichever he decides to create. He’s passionate and it shows. Whatever Barry does, he does with skill, a gifted talent that’s been trained up to a master’s level not seen in abundance today. As a masterful painter, designer, and creator, his eye for beauty and design is passionate and skillful to the highest levels.

This is a reference in regard to the artwork, decorative finishes and interior design work that I have been privy to see from Barry L. Wingard. I was fortunate on a number of occasions to see his interior design and decorative finishes in his own residence, in business customer residences and businesses and in houses of worship. His work is excellent and his perfectionism is second to none. My church the Roseville Independent Chapel has been blessed with several of Mr. Wingard’s artwork and it is cherished and appreciated.

What can one say about Barry Wingard’s obvious gifts and skills?  First, as an architectural designer and artisan of traditional frescos he is quite literally, a Renaissance man.  Barry’s design and interior architecture inspires the soul and the eye and takes us back to a grand destination.  Wingard’s virtuosity in this field is unmatched.  He is to fresco what Dale Chihuly was to Venetian glass, a true master of both creation and execution.

Secondly, Barry Wingard is an enigmatic fine artist whose volume of collections are only matched by his variety in subject and style.  All of his canvas works impart a superrealism of detail no matter the subject.  Many times, this attribute can be too photographic in appearance and lack humanity.  But not in this case.  Barry layers imagery, light and subject that always elicits an emotional feeling or sense and becomes captivating.  This is evident in some of his portrait work that actually captures the emotions and qualities of the subjects.  I have a lifelong love of the architectural design and fine arts.  Barry Wingard stands out as a great talent and true Renaissance Man.

Sincerely speaking,

Barry L. Wingard’s talent goes beyond imagination. He is very unique, exquisite, amazing, and truly gifted in all the work he is doing no matter in what field you need his expertise. Barry has been practicing Interior design for over 30 years, decorative painting for over 20 years, and fine art since he was 5 years old,

You will love all his amazing, incredible work and you are truly in for a treat if you let him help you in your wish for some restorations or whatever you need within his expertise. I highly recommend Barry.

Throughout the years, my wife and I have grown acquainted with Barry through his gallery and visits to his home. In total, we have acquired five of his remarkable paintings, including two striking portraits of the President and First Lady, as well as three captivating pieces from his renowned “Life of Christ” collection. As our primary residence has reached its limit in accommodating fine art, we made the heartfelt decision to purchase and graciously donate the three paintings from the “Life of Christ” series to our beloved church. The joy and excitement that our church has expressed upon receiving these works is truly beyond imagination!

Barry is a true visionary, akin to a modern-day Michelangelo. His meticulous attention to detail is nothing short of awe-inspiring, leaving all who gaze upon his creations utterly astonished.

Yours sincerely,

Sincerely speaking,

It takes an enormous amount of perception, talent and skill to capture a face on canvas, man or beast. Not to diminish the skill it takes to paint the rest of the body, but the face holds its particular challenges. Barry Wingard is a master of painting the face. The life and depth he captures with the brush is beyond amazing; it’s is mesmerizing. 

My wife and I also own a Barry Wingard landscape. Again, it is hard to fathom how he, as an artist, can capture the light needed to make a landscape come alive. This painting never ceases to amaze our guests when they see it. Barry’s ability to use color and light to its fullest and in its most subtle forms Is a signature of its own. 

We currently have three pieces and hope to add to our collection soon. Barry’s artwork is always a welcome addition to our home.

There are many great artists in America by virtue of their talent alone. Barry L. Wingard is more than just someone able to render a picture in oil or capture the spirit of an historical moment on canvas. When he is commissioned to do a piece, you see another side to a professional. He goes into high gear as if he puts on a counselling hat and asks the most provocative questions. He wants to know who you are, your motivation, your sensitivities, your beliefs before he puts brush to canvas and fulfills the commission. His portrait of myself and Melania Trump celebrates not only the Christmas season but adds a whimsical element beyond the norm and brings both a smile to the face of the viewer but also puts into historical perspective a unique and memorable approach which is well outside what a regular portrait might bring. Truly original and brilliantly thought out in its rendering. A master of the form.

We were introduced to Barry’s work several years ago when we visited his gallery. We have been collecting art for more years than we would like to admit, we immediately knew one of Barry’s paintings would have a place in our home.

Barry’s painting of a young American Indian boy is the centerpiece of our collection, it is admired by all who visit our home.

My wife and I had our 15-year anniversary approaching so I wanted to do something special to show her how appreciative I am of the four kids we have together and all the support she’s given me personally and professionally over the years.  I approached Barry about doing a family portrait that could be a timeless symbol of all we’ve accomplished together.  He delivered an immaculate portrait that now is the centerpiece in the foyer of our home.  Everyone that has seen the portrait comments on the details that captures the personality of our entire family.  Barry is the best.

We placed a custom commission for a special painting depicting a Hollywood icon, based upon some historical photos and a creative conversation. Barry not only captured the exquisite likeness of our subject; his work actually seems to impart a piece of her soul. When we received our canvas and unfurled the painting – we gasped in astonishment and you could hear a pin drop in the room. Marilyn Monroe was simply brought back to life by Barry’s brush. He managed to capture both her innocence and beguiling nature – and our painting radiates a glow that is simply unexplainable. Barry is an Old Masters Artist who just happens to be living in contemporary times. Extraordinary skill level, professional, intuitive, kind, patient and thoughtful: an excellent human being to work with and make your dream piece come true.

Barry painted a portrait of my son Kagan.  The quality of the piece is amazing.   People often comment on the how true to him it is, even the sparkle in his eyes.  We will always cherish this precious family heirloom. 

Kristina Hoffman-Bonnett

Ten years ago, I was struggling decorating our 24×24 family room. I was friends with Barry’s mom and she recommended him. I was skeptical and when he chose a totally different color scheme than I thought I wanted I almost backed out! But as each color layer unfolded, I fell in love! A green paint that felt like blue, tile from Italy, a warm gold carpet that looked like cobblestone and a happy yellow door. Today it is our favorite room in the house! Barry has such a keen sense of color and style. He listened to what I desired to feel in our room and gave us beyond what we could have imagined. Working with his gentle, professional spirit was a joy.

Barry has a gift of seeing details of objects and color. His ability to put them on canvas allows the painting to come alive. Any of His paintings would be a great addition to any home or office.
