Meet Artist Deborah Marlene Kearney, Theme Division Accepted artist



DEBORAH MARLENE (KEARNEY)   


I ABSOLUTELY LOVE CALAVERAS COUNTY AND CONSIDER IT MY HOME,  I HAVE LIVED IN THIS COUNTY OVER 12 YEARS TOTAL AND 18 YEARS OF MY LIFE HAVE BEEN IN THE MOUNTAINS.
MY PRESENT LOVE AND MOST OF MY PAINTINGS ARE DONE IN WATER COLOR.  I TOOK CLASSES FOR 3 YEARS LOCALLY FROM LURA FRANCIS OF MURPHYS.  I HAVE WORKED EXTENSIVELY WITH THEM FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS.  I AM ALSO EXPERIENCED IN OIL PAINTING AND CURRENTLY, I AM WORKING IN ACRYLICS AGAIN, WITH CAROL FIELDS OF MURPHYS.
I HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED AND SHOWN IN A PREVIOUS IRONSTONE CONTEST, IN THE GALLO SHOW AND AT THE COUNTY FAIR TOOK A FIRST PLACE RIBBON.
I HAVE TAKEN MANY WORKSHOPS FROM LOCAL ARTISTS AND AM A PRACTITIONER OF WESTERN FENG SHUI, WHICH I USE IN MY ART AND FRAMING.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SUMMER ACTIVITIES IS PAINTING ON LOCATION AS IT GIVES ME A CHANCE TO DRINK IN AND PAINT SOME OF THE FANTASTIC SCENERY HERE IN THIS COUNTY.
I AM A MEMBER OF THE ARTS OF BEAR VALLEY AND WILL BE HELPING WITH THE BEAR VALLEY MUSIC FESTIVAL ART SHOW AS WELL AS THE COUNTY FAIR AND THE LAST SHOW OF THE SEASON AT BIG TREES STATE PARK.
AFTER MY 5 YEARS AWAY, I AM EXCITED TO BE BACK HERE CLOSER TO MY ART FRIENDS AND OTHER CLOSE FRIENDS AND FAMILY HERE IN CALAVERAS COUNTY.

I was excited to enter this competition and enjoyed seeing and participating in the show as a whole.
I am proud to say that this painting sold to a private party during the show.
Thank you for all the work you do, in providing such a nice venue for the Artistic Community.

Thank you Deborah. The Spring Obsession Art Show is our favorite time of year. This years show, thanks to participating artists, was one of the best!
