I'm not sure where to post this so if needs be can a moderator move to correct location Thanks Firstly I would like to thank Steve and Jenny for there introduction to Barry Moulton, and encuastic art. For those of you that have never dealt with this man, all I can say is that he is very helpful, there was no pressure to buy anything after I spent ages getting him to dig about his stock looking at varios bits and bobs,in fact he even took time out to give me a quick demo. Barry is one of a dying breed who is genuinely a nice person. His work on his web site does no justice to his tallent having seen other pieces of his work. For those of you who know Barry I suppose I have wasted your time reading this for which I am sorry. For those of you new to encaustic art (like myself) or wanting supplies with no nonsense advice with down to earth instruction I feel you would have to go a long way to beat Barry. Thank you for letting me have my rant I am very rarely this serious, I just felt compelled to say after the experience I had after dealing with Barry.Tephy |

At the risk of making the man's head swell so much we'll have to widen the doors...... It was Barry that first got me into EA! I saw a couple of his pictures at an exhibition I was taking part in and was absolutely bowled over by them. It was that moment that I realised that was what I had been looking for all these years, so when the man himself came to our village to do a demonstration at the WI I got a friend to get me in, gritting my teeth all the way through 'Jerusalem (I don't do singing!!! ) sat through all the boring committee stuff and then finally we all got to see him at work! And that was it......HOOKED!The rest is history! So Barry, I also owe you a debt of thanks. You've been so helpful to me and you deserve the praise! Now...who here does woodwork? Maria x |

Although I havnt met Barry, and only ever contacted through e mail and CB, I can also say that he is a very helpful, genuine person, his Customer Service is the best I have ever come across, I dont know how he gets the stuff to me that fast? Is he a Superhero My MIL has spoken with Barry and she is always singing his praises and we would recommend him to anyone wanting to do EA, I would say he is the best EA supplier around Thanks Barry for a fantastic First Class Service Sally |

I cannot agree more. Although I have never met Barry I have chatted to him a few times, often thinking he was an answer machine? Sorry Barry! It is so unusual to get a real live voice when ringing somewhere that i was quite taken aback and me being me, had to say!!! Poppy
