Debra Dobkin

Artist Statement

Dobkin was schooled in the style of classical painters but her approach to the canvas comes from an improvisational point of reference much like that of a group of musicians creating a piece of music. These current paintings and mixed media pieces are inspired by her love of color, textures and by her original photos taken on her travels. They evolve through a combination of painting, printmaking, and collage to convey a captured moment in time.
