Artist Debb Ferris Bates

I find it difficult to describe how happy we were with our portrait...Debb captured Fred's personality perfectly! Not only did she do a fantastic job on the por...trait but the compassion and empathy that she displayed towards us as we were heart broken over saying good bye to him was so comforting. I really really can't say enough...we were thrilled. Highly recommend! See more

I was asked to be in another art show with nine other artists !! ART is Artist, we are all unique and so different but this show is for each of us to challenge ourselves to try a different medium, that we either haven’t used much before or not at all. I have chosen to use acrylics ... hope to have 4-6 new pieces, with one in my normal medium, done in oils.
