Deborah Burian, Artist

Deborah Burian, Artist Painter I am a painter who embraces wild places, seeking to share hidden magic with the viewer.

As an unapologetic advocate for conservation, my paintings serve to share the wonders of nature with the viewer, providing a sense of peace and an appreciation of the value of wild and hidden places. My works hang through North America and I was recently honored to have “Monumental” a large (4’x8’) collaborative piece permanently installed at the Organ Mountains – Desert Peaks National Monument near Las Cruces, New Mexico.

I’ve been here, I’ve been there, I was hit in the head with a fuzzy bear. Now, I’m sitting and reviewing my favorite paintings of the last 12 months. Some by photo because they’re no longer with me and a handful on the wall that haven’t been shown or posted yet. It’s been a helluva year in the best possible way lots of travel, growth in my art, and always new experiences. Happy studio Sunday 😍.

Wave poetry graduated from the naughty corner today. It didn’t take much for me to realize the upper left was both too unstructured and a little muddled. Tidied that and a few other areas up and I’m much happier 😍.

I went to a great sketch session at the , then I came home and put the sketches on my wall to dry. I got pretty tickled when I realized they were the same colorway as one of my favorite color references that has no relationship whatsoever to this sketch or scene.

This painting is going to the naughty corner, I like it and I don’t like it. That means it’s time to set it aside and let the back of my brain figure out what’s not-quite-right.

Color swatches and a great start on a seascape. Rough waters, early days…. I’ve been playing with the idea of no lifeguard on duty, just you and the elements. That can be pretty magical.
