----------------------------- *About Deb* ----------------------------------------

Deb loved art from childhood, but was discouraged from 'a time wasting hobby'. She became a nurse, worked at the hospital and raised a family. But she kept painting. 

Over time, she developed her own unique style of watercolor realism and painted a lot of award winning art. Deb enjoys painting everyday scenes from her small town community which she calls Small Town America series. She also loves teaching, and helping other beginners learn fun and easy ways to paint their own ideas.

"I hope this video helps you enjoy your own art journey. If you want to learn or improve your painting, please check my websites. It makes me happy to to share the joy of art with other artists from beginners to professionals." - Deb
