Debra is an abstract painter working and living in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. She is originally from Detroit and received her BFA in Painting from CCS (College For Creative Studies). She works primarily in acrylic on canvas, but also enjoys mixed media and collage on paper. Debra has participated in many group shows and had two solo exhibitions in 2022.
Working intuitively, laying down paint and reacting to what happens, Debra hones in on what she wants a piece to say as she goes. It’s a journey where color, texture, and form speak for her – an internal dialogue expressed through painting. Debra is interested in a direct path to emotional energy and gets rid of any technique or concept that gets in the way.
