Welcome to my Studio Adventures
Studio - my Happy Place
Hello friends - we moved to San Angelo TX one year ago! This town has a very strong art presence and is home to En Plein Air Texas and much, much more. I am set up and have joined new Art organizations: Plein Air San Angelo (PASA) and Art Aliance San Angelo (AASA.) There are many Shows and events here - subscribe to my Newsletter and check this website to know where to find my art work. I have created a studio space in the 3rd bedroom of our new home. The second bedroom has been taken over as my "Gallery" - a place to display my artwork. I have returned to hosting Studio Tours/ Open Houses! I am very excited to hear that Alejandro and the AASA are going to endeavor to build a whole event around Studio Tours. You are welcome and INVITED to visit. I am available most afternoons. Just send me an email or give me a call! 325-244-3278 |

A bit more about my art endeavors ...
This segment of Debra's Artistic Adventures has been more than rewarding. After studying with 2 powerful watercolor instructors, I decided to expand my skills. The online course began June of 2021. Relocation to San Angelo put the online classes on hold until new studio arrangements were made. Courses resumed and I am have completed the program and I have graduated and received their certificate of completion. It is not possible to explain all that has been covered. Everything from A - Z! I wanted my mind to expand beyond the obvious - and this was the right course. The lessons demonstrate a technique. We choose what to paint by building sources of things we want to paint (never the same picture as the instructor.) This therefore has exposed Debra to computer / photo manipulation as well. New skills on website construction, the e-commerce requirement forced me to "face my fears and set it up!" I am acutally grateful they required it. This is the brave new area I will conquer and improve upon regularly.
