Booker's Mill Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

Now living in Pensacola, Florida, Debbie was born in Mobile, Alabama, and spent most of her life living along or near the Gulf Coast, including 12 years in New Orleans, Louisiana. Her journeys have taken her throughout the states and to Europe, Mexico, Israel and India. She also traveled to Egypt numerous times and had the opportunity to live there for one year in 1989-90. While studying art in college, Debbie received instruction in all mediums and most styles. Although she enjoyed using oils and watercolors, she found her greatest satisfaction came when using charcoal, pencil and pastels to create realistic art, which she favored until 2012 when she began painting abstracts. Moving from realistic art to abstract art was a difficult transition for Debbie, but she embraced the challenge of letting go, using color, and not staying in the lines. During the past year, she has been utilizing Photoshop to create original digital artwork and creative photo art for both herself and her husband Storm Smith. Her commissioned portraits and original art can be found in homes and businesses throughout the states. As an artist, fine art printmaker, former gallery owner/director and many years employed as Executive Assistant to CEOs of large corporations, Debbie has a wide breadth of experience and the wonderful gifts of being logical and organized, and also intuitive and creative.
