In her artist's statement Debbie writes:
“I used to spend hours in my room drawing pictures when I was little. I have no idea where the original inclination came from, it just blossomed by itself. Sometimes I felt like what I drew literally came out of my hands without any effort on my part. Looking back now, I am grateful that my mother kept buying me more paper! I am naturally curious, visual and observant, so maybe that’s how this affinity began in the first place. All I know is that I am passionate about creating art and just as passionate and committed to learning and improving...”
