"Barnet, a painter and printmaker, was born
in Beverly, Massachusetts. As a child, he
spent hours sketching and reading art books
at the library. After studying at the School of
the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Barnet
concentrated on lithography at the Art
Students League in New York in 1930.
He taught and produced art in New York
for more than sixty years. Barnet’s works
focus primarily on the human figure
enhanced by abstract arrangements
that express moods and feelings."
