Deede has been creating artwork since childhood in various forms. Growing up in the country, there were unending opportunities of things to paint or paint on. She really enjoys experimenting with various mediums.
Deede specializes in Pet Portraits. Her portraits are unique because of the use of acrylic textures, paper tearing and color pourings on canvas as well as watercolor paper. The colors are vibrant and enhance each subject. Deede's love of animals can be seen in her other artwork as well. She has painted landscapes, stilllife, abstracts and stone animals.She loves people’s reaction to her artwork!
Deede truly hopes you will enjoy looking through her gallery. She has also included examples of her artwork that's not for sale, but will allow you to see some of the colors and textures she has used. If you are interested in any of her artwork for sale in the gallery, or prefer a commissioned portrait, please feel free to contact Deede with any questions.
