Debbie's Illustrations
I have multiple illustration styles, but am most drawn to the quirky and cute-odd. Here is a list of some of my artistic influences. You can see my Daily Doodles on Instagram and a list of my book projects. I also have fun posting found object doodles, including Broken Crayon art. I'm represented by Ginger Knowlton at Curtis Brown Ltd.
I post my found object art mainly on Instagram. A number of you have asked about a found object children's book. My answer: I'm working on it. :-) Some have also asked about where to buy prints: also working on this. If you'd like to be notified about when either is available, please do sign up for my newsletter.
And thank you for your interest in my work! I really appreciate it. -- Debbie
