Excerpt from the 'DeborahElmquist' website where you can find more of her works and similar Still Life. Florida born, Deborah Elmquist is a professional artist mastering the still life, landscape, and portrait/figure since 1997. Currently in Port Orange Florida, she first enjoyed the works of the Old Masters while living in Europe as an “Army brat.” Her original inspiration to become an artist came about with family visits to fine art museums, historic castles, and the classic fine art she experienced in Europe. Upon returning to the States, she pursued an art career throughout her early years having the good fortune to study oil painting with the artistry and teachings of Ralph L. Bagley, a Willem de Kooning contemporary and founder of Florida’s first atelier before he joined Orlando College, Orlando, FL. She majored in fine art during her undergraduate college years, but later finished as an educator earning her masters and doctorate degrees along the way. She continued her fine art education and mastery of the painting techniques of the Old Masters through workshops and study with accomplished artists Greg Kruetz, Michael Siegel, Joshua Fallik, Sadie Valerie, Joseph Paquet, Seth Haverkamp, and Myron Barnstone. Painting from life and life experiences, her subjects included family heirloom, antique fabrics and pottery, regional landscapes, and the people of Florida and North Carolina. She treated the lay of fabrics like a landscape transformed by light, the pottery representing mankind metaphorically; the working of the earth by human hands, warmed by light. She paints in oils for oils too metaphorically represent a complete circle of life – from earth to life, and from life to art – for the oils and color pigments too come from the earth. For her, painting in oils remains a kind of spiritual experience in addition to being a personal means of expression.” Like many artists, she first sold her artwork directly to the public through community, regional, and national art shows and festivals where she received numerous awards. Over the years her work was offered in fine-art galleries in Naples, FL, Atlanta, GA; Charleston, SC; Fredericksburg, TX; and Kennebunkport, ME. A member of OPA since 2004, her work has been frequently juried into national and regional OPA exhibitions since 2005. Her professional affiliations include Oil Painter’s of America, Portrait Society of America, and Art Renewal Center, and the National Oil & Acrylic Painters’ Society. Publications include the Halifax Magazine, the Daytona Beach News Journal, and American Art Collector. Some of my artwork is also held by Volusia County Art in Public Places, and the Museum of Art and Science of Daytona Beach in the Museum’s permanent and loan collections.
