I strive to capture the subject’s individuality and character, to render their dignity and beauty in a realistic, sensitive painting. I will do my utmost to honor the subject being painted and create an heirloom that will be cherished for generations.” Deborah’s portraits are in the private collections of, to name a few, a U.S. Senator, a Shuttle Astronaut, various Sports and Entertainment personalities and numerous institutions such as Hospitals, Corporations, Libraries, Fraternities and Sororities.
