Buckhorn Artists' Group Blog - Deborah Wasson

I have posted the biography of another member of the Buckhorn Artists' Group, Deborah Wasson to the blog as well as an example of her artwork.

Birch Forest

This is another painting I started a while ago when I was painting in acrylic (see post on 19 August 2011).

I added the markings on the birch trees using a mix of French ultramarine blue and burnt sienna.

I added the leaves to some of the tree branches with a mixture of raw sienna and cadmium yellow light.

This original 6-1/4" x 10" framed acrylic painting is available for $150.00.

Autumn Breeze

This is a painting I started a while ago and decided to complete (see post on 17 August 2011).

I did some more work on the tree trunk and branches. Then I added leaves to the branches, on the ground and a few that the wind had picked up and carried away.

This original 7-1/4" x 10-3/4" framed acrylic painting is available for $150.00.

Birch Trio

I enjoy painting birch trees and have done paintings of them in all seasons and in a wide variety of media. I came across this one and wanted to finish it as there was very little it needed (see post 17 October 2010).

It didn't take long to put in the markings on the trees. I used various mixtures of French ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and raw sienna.

This original 5-1/4" x 7-1/2" watercolour painting will be available for $165.00.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and look at the artwork. I hope you will return often.

Hunter's Moon

This painting just needed more definition on the trees from when I started the painting on location while at the Knoepfli Inn last year (see post on 03 October 2011).

I also darkened the water and defined the moon glow reflected in it.

This is an original 2-3/4" x 5-3/4" framed watercolour painting and is available for $85.00.

Drive Shed I

In this area there are many old barns and sheds that are slowly falling apart and will soon be a distant memory.

This drive shed is still standing on Highway 28 (also known as the Lakefield Road) but for how long I do not know.













Each year there are a few less tiles on the sagging roof and a few more missing boards.

This original 4" x 6” matted and shrink wrapped, pen and ink drawing is available for $45.00. SOLD

Brief Encounter

I set this painting on my desk and kept looking at it to see what was bothering me about it (see postings on 19 March 2011, 11 December 2011 and 27 May 2012).

The sun was still the problem and seemed to have a dark ring around it which would not happen. I blended the area around the sun and darkened the cloud slightly.

This original 4-1/2" x 7-3/4" watercolour painting when framed will be available for $165.00.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and enjoy the artwork.
