My name is Harry Baruhas

“My painting...obsesses and torments me. I don’t know which way I’m going. One day I think I’m at work on a masterpiece, then it turns into a nothing. I fight, I fight on without making any headway. I believe I am seeking the impossible, but I’m filled with confidence.”

Monet, 1888​

I woke one morning 16 years ago with a peculating desire buried deep down in my Soul to paint. My memory sparked and remembered as a child I loved to draw, to be creative, to realise and express with my energy my feelings. This was not encouraged and soon learnt to bury it deep inside me.

​

Well, now it has awakened again. I painted, day and through the night. Now I feel it’s a process for me to resolve my feelings, to release the contraction of my ego. 

To transcended and communicate. 

An expression from me Haralabi (yes my birthname) to the world. 
I judge my ART not if its good or not. I assess it by how it makes me feel when I sit and just “be with it”. Allow it to be with me and me with it.

Of the many paintings thus far, some I have sold, some I have given as gifts and some I still hold for sale.

Along my journey, I have been blessed to be coached occasionally. To be directed and inspired. My deepest thanks to my wonderful friend Richard Newton and my soul buddy Sara Catena. A deepest thanks to my dearest friend Jane Jordan.

I have read/gazed at books on the French Impressionist, attended galleries, particularly love Degas Exhibition in Melbourne.

​

I am influenced by Image Art of Adi Da Samraj and have had the book  The World as Light by Mei Ling beside me on my couch for many years.

Art evolves, I evolve. As we all do. From Haralabi, to Harry, to H 

I sign my paintings as H! 

​

H-Art evolved from there and then registered the domain name.
