Northey's Barn Boutique Show
We are having wonderful, sunny day, with the temperature reaching 79F (26C) and a gentle breeze blowing to keep away the humidity for the first day of the Northey's Barn Boutique Show.
The show is spread out over the two upper levels of the barn. On the middle level, we have five artists exhibiting their works, while on the upper level there are art displays, pottery and photography.
Upon entering the barn the first set of grids on the left side feature a few of the works by JoAnne Connell Northey; and as you continue toward the back of the area on the left you will find a multitude of items created by Diane Collins.
The first thing that will catch your eyes are the wonderful watercolours paintings of floral and landscapes. This is followed by the many items set out on her table ranging from matted and shrink wrapped watercolours, acrylic paintings, art cards, hand painted sun visors and our favourite a basket of sock monkeys.
This is followed by the art display of Rebecca Bilcox featuring bold, vibrant acrylic paintings of landscapes, floral and still life.
She also has a number of her delightful watercolour paintings of the local landscape and animals.
On the far wall of the barn you are treated to the bold and colourful watercolour paintings by artist Ron Dejardine.
His artwork depicts a wide variety of subject matter from eye catching landscapes, brilliantly coloured floral paintings and a number of playfully depicted barnyard animals which are sure to bring a smile to all.
As you come up the right side of the wall there are the works of Pat Harvey McCourt fearueinf watercolour paintings of animals, landscape and floral..
It is open from 10a.m. - 4p.m. and if you are able to attend, we look forward to seeing you.

Buckhorn Artists' Group - A Brief History
The Buckhorn Tuesday Painters was formed in 1987, when several like-minded artists decided to meet together and paint in St. Matthew's Church Hall in Buckhorn, Ontario. Since then the group has evolved and expanded from the original ten members and beginning in 1989 some of the members formed the Buckhorn Artists’ Group and have offered their art to the public at their annual shows.
The Group held its first show and sale on Victoria Day Weekend in 1989.
After another successful show the following year they decided to hold a Thanksgiving show and sale as well. They continued to run two shows a year until 1990 when the Group members decided to hold a summer show in August for the first time.

All shows are held in the St. Matthew's Church Hall in beautiful downtown Buckhorn, where visitors can view the works of twelve to fifteen different artists. If you have a chance to be in Buckhorn this year, it would be a great opportunity to drop into one of the 2011 shows.
The Victoria Day Weekend show, called "Among Friends", is held in May, the "Shades of Summer" Show and Sale will be held this year from 06-14 August 2011.
Here's a glimpse at the members of the Buckhorn Artists' Group and what their specialties are...
- Susan Sydney: has been exhibiting her work since 1982 and works in all media except oils and egg tempera. She enjoys doing animal portraits, wildlife, still life, floral, landscapes and mechanical. Recently she has started experimenting with abstracts and collages.
Winter Whimsy an original watercolour painting.
- Irene Smith: began painting in 1985. She paints landscapes, animals and floral in oil and watercolour. She also does architectural renderings in pen and ink or in pencil.
Pink Serenade an original oil painting.
- Helen Sheppard: is well known for her oil and watercolour paintings of Stoney Lake where she resides. Although most her work is of landscapes and flowers, she is often commissioned for paintings of St. Peter's on the Rock, a church on an island in Stoney Lake.
The Turtle Pond an original oil painting.
- Heather Grant: paints in oils, watercolour, pen and ink, pastels, graphite pencils and charcoal, she also carves in wood and does traditional rug hooking. Heather likes to do landscapes which often feature wildlife and buildings in her work, as well as still life and floral paintings.
Old Barn an original oil painting.
- Barbara McGregor: paints in oils and acrylics, but her favourite medium is watercolour. Scenes using water as a focal point are her favourite way of expressing her love of the Kawartha Lakes and Haliburton areas.
Forgotten Barns an original watercolour painting.
- Bonny Windover: paints mainly in watercolour and sometimes adds pen and ink details to her paintings. Her delicate paintings are usually of still life, landscapes and floral.
Forgotten Days an original watercolour painting.
- Penny Little: does most of her oils, watercolours and sketches from her home on Gilchrist Bay where she offers for sale greeting cards, paintings and sketches. She accepts commission work of cottages and local scenes.
Painted Turtle an original acrylic painting.
- JoAnne Connell Northey: has enjoyed painting in watercolour for a number of years. Each painting is an original, done from sketches on location or from photographs she has taken. She has her own art studio and pottery studio and each piece of pottery is hand done on the wheel, and unique.
Farm Sunset an original acrylic painting.
- Tom Young: started with Japanese brush calligraphy and painting which he pursued until he discovered watercolour in 1988. He has developed his own style, mainly consisting of bright colours and transparency. Tom is always ready for a fresh approach to any subject, from traditional to surrealism.
Crucifixion an original watercolour painting.
- Diane Collins: she began at an early age entering high school art competitions and won awards. Once she retired in 1998 she returned to painting for pleasure and relaxation with each piece being a "new adventure".
The Rose Door an original watercolour painting.
- Lorraine Ryan: started with folk art and learned about colour and how to use your brushes. From there she progressed to watercolour, pen and ink, acrylic, mixed media, and photography; all of which she thoroughly enjoys.
Petunias an original watercolour painting.
- Rebecca Bilcox: is the newest addition to the Group; she chooses to paint a wide variety of subject matter in watercolour. Many of her paintings are rich and vibrant, full of strong contrasts which show her easily recognized style.
