Debbie James About Me

I like to paint Landscapes, Seascapes, Rivers & Lakes.

There are many areas of outstanding natural beauty on my doorstep, including the county of Rutland, the Cambridgeshire Fens & the wonderful wild and windy Norfolk and Suffolk coastlines.

Cornwall, the Gower peninsular and Jersey have featured in my recent work.

I also paint Portugal's beautiful Algarve coastline with its variety of flora and fauna and turquoise sea.

Mediums

WATERCOLOURS . ACRYLICS . OILS . PASTEL . INKS

I use each of these mediums according to the subject, my mood or the location.

Using pastels 'Plein Air' is a wonderfully direct way to paint, especially on a windy day!
