  • 'Reindeer' original signed watercolor painting, winter ice mountains reindeer
    By David Barnett
    Located in Milwaukee, WI
    'Reindeer' is an original watercolor painting, signed by the artist in the lower right corner. As the sun rises over a blue and green mountain range, a reindeer scans the snow-covered horizon of the tundra. Barnett's use of watercolor is minimalistic, allowing the untouched areas of the canvas to imitate snow and the reindeer's stark and branching antlers to mimic leafless trees during the winter months. When color does appear, it is used to depict the reflection of the sun's light off of a frozen river. Watercolor painting 18.75 x 16.375 inches, artwork 19.75 x 17.25 inches, frame Signed in lower right Framed to conservation standards using archival materials including 100 percent rag mounting materials, plexiglass to inhibit fading, and housed in a silver finish wood moulding.
