Edgar Degas quote above is timeless. Within me, there is a driving force that seeks tranquility. My art provides contentment and is an antidote to the crushing forces of a frenzied world. My garage/studio conveys it all. Somewhere in the chaos of this dirty space, a unique creativity flows and serenity is restored.
Martin Seligman, a pioneer in positive psychology, introduced the concept of flourishing as a holistic approach to well-being. His PERMA model (Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishments) form the foundation of flourishing, Inspired and based on his work, this series seeks to examine the parallel in how both seek to explore human experience beyond surface-level perceptions. Abstract art, like flourishing, encourages us to engage deeply with our emotions, to find meaning in non-literal representations, and challenge conventional perspectives. Both concepts invite one to look beyond the obvious and find richness in the complex tapestry of human existence. The boxes are an attempt to find these parallels.

Deborah creates highly finished, abstract work using beeswax , alcohol inks and other materials; her work is exploratory, tactile, and playful. Inspired by traditional Japanese forms, materials, and craftsmanship, as well as through her own awareness of twentieth-century art practice, she seeks to revisit and re-imagine the art object, to somehow “make it new.””
My art style is heavily influenced by nature and the beauty of the world around us. I strive to capture the essence of my subject and interpret in abstractly to convey a calm and peaceful experience.
I offer a variety of art services, including commissioned pieces and art classes. Contact me to discuss your project or to schedule a time for a demo or class.
