Roger 'Syd' Barrett viewed himself primarily as a visual artist, and after his Pink Floyd days devoted most of his time to painting. Not many of his canvasses survive, since his habit was to destroy them or paint over them after completion but we show copies of as many as possible here, plus his sketches and examples of his DIY furniture making.


After his last solo performances, Syd returned to his first love and spent the rest of his life painting and drawing at home in Cambridge
