• "When I am making art, I know this is what I should be doing."

    I love being an artist, nothing lights me up more.

    I cannot breathe if I am not creating.

  • I create Art and Beauty for Lifestyle and Home.

    Modern, Retro, and Scandi with a hint of Spice.

  • I am always inspired to capture the beauty of flowers, plants and stems.

    The garden is so full of gifts, I feel so lucky to call it my muse.

Welcome, so glad you are here…

 

I’m Deborah Velásquez,

ARTIST, DESIGNER, AND AUTHOR

I have had a love affair with art and creating since childhood. My internal creative drive and love of learning has led me to explore many creative disciplines.

My background as an illustrator, graphic designer, milliner, ceramic business owner, rug designer, painter, and printmaker all came together to make me the artist I am today. It provides a confident creative compass.

My key inspiration has always been my mom’s words “live life without regret, do everything” and you can say I did. 

Looking back the discipline, the drive and exploration all comes together and makes sense in my unique artist journey. What drives me and my art is Possibility, Accessibility and Curiosity.

What I believe…..People will be inspired by your determination 

I love being an Artist and I enjoy the creative life in the wooded hills of New England my husband and two boys.

When I am not making art I enjoy Cooking, Museums, Travel, Skiing, Antiquing, Gardening, Education and Learning, Thrifting and Engagement in Social Justice.

 
 

“The object isn’t to make art, it’s to be in that state which makes art inevitable.”

-Robert Henri
