Fur or feathers, hooves or paws, from four-legged companions to elusive wild creatures, the animal world in its wonder and variety fuels Deborah's creativity. She has been making art since she could first hold a pencil and is known for lifelike coloured pencil drawings and lively paintings on silk.

"​I am driven by a deep love of the animal world and an undeniable impulse to make art. ​Images of creatures who cross my path come to life in my studio as expressions of wonder and appreciation."
