Del Kathryn Barton

(Australian, born 1972)

Del Kathryn Barton is an Australian painter best known for her whimsical depictions people and animals. Her psychedelic environments are created using sequins, markers, gouache, and glitter. “All I can say is that the work does mean everything to me and it is like a life source,” she explained. Born on December 11, 1972 in Sydney, Australia, she attended the College of Fine Arts at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, graduating with a BFA in 1993. In 2008, the artist won the prestigious Archibald Prize for her portrait You are what is most beautiful about me, a self portrait with Kell and Arella, a self-portrait with her two children. In 2013, she again won the Archibald Prize, this time for her portrait of the actor Hugo Weaving. Barton’s fantasy world lent itself to a successful animated adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s work The Nightingale and the Rose in 2015. She continues to live and work in Sydney, Australia. Today, Barton's works are held in the collections of the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra, and the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane, among others.
