Debby Brienen

Debra was born in central Illinois and has lived in Tallahassee, Fl. for more than 25 years. She is married to Randy (also an artist) and has raised three children. She is a self-taught artist working in acrylic. She has drawn and painted all her life either inspirationally or by commission. Her most recent venture, Painted Memories, offers paintings developed from her client's travel photos or home landscape photos intended to preserve places or events on canvas to grace the walls of home or office.

Her work typically expresses the joy and happiness she finds in living. Her work favors idyllic moments, real or remembered, home landscape portraits such as your personal residence, childhood home, or beach house, historical renditions, nature landscapes, and cottage florals.

She has exhibited in many juried shows, and most recently was chosen to be the featured artists for LeMoyne's 2008 Chain of Parks art festival in Tallahassee.
