Debbie Lee with Bella

“I’ve always been interested in drawing and painting taking courses in high school and college.  During the 80’s I started tole painting, but that wasn’t challenging.  I began painting animals on stones,  taking custom orders at craft fairs painting what
ever anyone wanted on a stone.  Believe me the requests were varied.  I followed the craft fair circuit for several years.
Upon moving to Longview, Washington, I began painting with acrylics on canvas and joined the Broadway Gallery about a year ago.  I’m now also taking custom orders for pet portraits on stones again.
 My work tends to be fanciful, whimsical and sometimes humorous.   I paint for enjoyment and hope my work brings a smile or a laugh to others. “
