New Work, New Colors!

 Deb found color at her CGU Studio

Don't get me wrong she still is working in shades of grey, though California living has flooded her palette.   Cyan is happy about the change as well, so happy that she lends mommy a hand any chance she gets.

Deb has been exploring new surfaces as along with new media.  She hopes to push her explorations much further.  Grad school has come with its challenges, but Deb feels extremely blessed to be at CGU.  

Claremont is home to Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Gardens; which is a great source of inspiration, showcasing many native trees.  Deb enjoys spending time among the Oak trees, some of which are many hundred years old.

New Adventures

Deb is off to California again, this time she will be returning as a graduate student. She was accepted to Claremont Graduate University for the past two years. She ran into a beautiful baby bump last year and now is on her way to Graduate school this summer. There is a three hundred year old oak right in the near by botanical garden that I'm sure she will make friends with.
