Debbi is a contemporary artist working in oil and pastel. Influenced by the natural world, she loves painting simplified landscapes, breaking down elements into their basic shapes and forms using a variety of palette knife and brush applications. She also creates still life works and full abstractions. Artists Wayne Thiebaud, Marc Bohne, Richard Diebenkorn, Raimonds Strapans, Henri Matisse and Mark Rothko continue to inspire her works. Whether painting large or small, abstract or representational, she focuses on design, balance, movement, texture, rhythm, contrast, energy, harmony and color. SEE MORE
