Welcoming our newist artistic contributor, Debbie Laan
Debbie is a full time award winning artist based in Urunga and has lived on the NSW North Coast for most of her life. She is passionate about drawing and painting and uses mostly inks, watercolours and gouache. For the last decade she has been creating her story telling mandalas and really enjoy the repeat pattern, the structure of the circle, and using colour.
She has been successfully selling her unique art from local markets for the last 22 years and find that people appreciate talking to the artist from a ground level. Selling art can be challenging but extremely rewarding at the same time.
It's not hard to be inspired to create when she lives in such a beautiful part of Australia. She has the best of both worlds here and her paintings reflect that. Her art practice keeps her grounded and happy and likes to think she creates “Happy Art”
