Franklin, Tennessee

Deborah, a fashion merchandising and business degree graduate of Valparaiso University, Indiana, began her career in artistic expression with fabric and threads. She began selling her work in 1986 and within ten years her client list expanded to include galleries, interior designers and sales representatives internationally. In 1998, Deborah began also selling her work online. Her work is impressionistic and abstract in style. She selects the technique and treatment that best communicates the vision and emotion of a piece by blending different mediums such as acrylic paint, oil pastels, modeling paste, fabric paints and textiles. In 2004, she joined Abide Studio, a retail studio and gallery in Franklin Tennessee, an anchor of The Row at The Factory, a community of creative working artists in the historic Factory building.
