Here you will find a compilation of comments and critiques about Deborah's works.


Connection



-  Outstanding

-  Beautifully done. Love the strong colors, enhances the strength in the horse.

-  Love this one. The colours on the horse are wonderful.

-  Oh, this is wonderful. The person is striking yet remains subtle, and oh, the horses color, wow!

- This is a wonderful piece of work......very colorful and lively.....    well done!

-  I really like the tension that is conveyed. Both the dramatic color and the tightness of rein convey that to me. Love that small blue highlight line up on the mane / neck, and how the nose melts into the background

    

Collection



-
Oh, the colors are luscious! Interesting to use Dressage, to me a very precise manner of horsemanship, while pushing a looser more painterly style! I love it!

-  Wow! The colors are great! I absolutely love the way you've carried this out - he's loose, bright, detailed- what a neat style!

-  Really lovely! Love the colors you've chosen, and I like the juxtaposition of the Dressage subject with the looser representation.

-  I love this series! This is true Dressage art at its best.

-  Just beautiful! I love it!

- A wonderful painting! It's amazing. I love your art!


Midnight Rendezvous




-   This has a real abstract quality to it as well as great color!

-    This painting I really like as it has wonderful strokes, touches of color and just strikes my fancy.

-   I love that eye, it says so so much.

-   I think only one who take horses deep in the heart can paint like that !

Harmony



-   Beautiful! Youv'e really captured that totally attentive, focused look of a good dressage horse when it is working.

-   Gosh, this is absolutely stunning.The blue background really makes the horse pop ! Totally splendid work.

-   I really like the colours in this, and you have got to love that eye


The Mighty Quinn






- This is just so gorgeous! Love the background and the dog's expression. Amazing eyes!

 



-   Wonderful. This really is beautiful. You've captured the expression perfectly, and the BC stare. Love your colorful background as well.

 



-   Wonderful work - and 10 x 8!!!!!!

 



-   This is such a wonderful painting!!




-   What an adorable dog!!!!!! How on earth did you paint this?  This is just perfect!!











 -   This is so fabulous!  Where to begin? I love those eyes, the nose, the fur, the ears,
the background that sets it all off so nicely, And did I mention the eyes?






-   Deborah!!!!!! That is one of the BEST Border Collie paintings I have ever seen and I have seen so many.It's absolutely gorgeous.The eyes especially are incredible. You are an amazingly talented artist and I will look forward to seeing more of your work.
 


-   Yep. No question about it. That is the Border Collie look, and you've done a fantastic job on the eyes -- as well as the rest of it. As one who has       owned two BCs in the past I can attest that you have captured the mystique here. Thanks for sharing.   


Eyes of Rescue





 
-  Deborah, sweet sweet sweet face! What a beautiful painting!

-   Absolutely Fabulous! You have done a superb job on the eyes!

-   The eyes are speaking to me....

-   I love this so much.   I paint dogs regularly and Border Collies are one of my favourite breeds.They are so keen, always on the look out and you have captured their character and a wonderful expression at the same time.
