Hi there! My name is Shaun Buckwold, and I have lived in Chestermere for over 30 years. I just love this community. It has always been a friendly place where you wave at everyone you meet.
Even though I have been a member of the Chestermere Fine Art Guild for many years, I am a very mediocre painter! (Haaaaaaa). So to any of you out there hesitating to join, thinking you aren’t good enough, please know the Art Guild welcomes all skill levels. They are a great group of people and are always happy to help someone out.
I paint with acrylics; and since I have designed a fair number of houses over the years, I often enjoy painting buildings. And even though I am a very secular individual, my paintings also often have a church steeple or obelisk in them. I suppose this is my way of symbolizing one’s quest to Elevate themselves. But believe me, I still have a long way to go on that journey!
