Debra Draper Designs Graphic Design and Fine Art It all began in the third grade during one particular art lesson. The odds of not having to speak were definitely in my favor.

Watercolor was the medium, and how to paint a landscape with fall trees was what the class would learn how to paint. I was a very shy child back then so of course I breathed a sigh of relief. The lesson began, and I remember it being the most relaxing and natural thing I’d ever done. I was free. After that memorable day I was hooked for years.

In recent years I came to the realization that I had a God given talent that I had wasted, and I was determined to start again. I added graphic design to my artistic skills and am making a fresh start. I truly believe that everyone has a gift that should never be taken
for granted. We all need to use what has been given to us to find
true happiness.

Missing my son. I don't have any pictures of him up :( most of my framed ones were accidentally thrown out by my house "cleaners". So ❤️ breaking. I do have this one that I'm going to get printed out and framed next month along with a watercolor that has been sitting in a drawer.
