Artist: Bruce Buchanan
Bruce Buchanan’s work is described as “realist landscape”. He chooses to work in watercolour for its infinite tonal possibilities and translucency. His focus is on capturing mood, atmosphere and subtlety in his subjects which include both the natural and built landscapes.
Originally trained in watercolour as an architect, he is meticulous and precise in his application of watercolour washes and fine detail. He has received many awards including Best of Show in the Brisbane Rotary Art Spectacular, and the Watercolour Prize on numerous occasions.
Recently he was one of eight watercolorists selected to represent Australia in the Fabriano in Acquarello Exhibition in Italy. His work is held in regional galleries, corporate and private collections in Australia and overseas.
