Debbie James about me

 I paint Landscapes, Seascapes, Rivers & Lakes. 

There are many areas of outstanding natural beauty on my doorstep including the county of Northamptonshire , Rutland as well as the Cambridgeshire Fens & the wonderful wild and sometimes windy Norfolk and Suffolk coastlines.

Cornwall, The wonderful Gower peninsular and Jersey have featured in my recent work.

I also paint Portugal's beautiful Algarve coastline with its variety of flora, fauna and turquoise atlantic ocean.

I paint from my home garden studio overlooking the Northamptonshire countryside.

Thank you for looking.

Mediums

Using  pastels 'Plein Air' is a wonderfully direct way to paint, especially on a windy day!
