Deb’s artistic imagination started through whimsical snowmen, wide-eyed woodland creatures, beachside nostalgia, and sketchbook scribbles and made under the watchful eye of her feline assistant. These pieces may not hang in your home, but they hold the heart of Shugars Art, Joy, wonder, and creativity.
Deborah Shugars lives with her husband in the Sebago Lakes Region of Maine. Since retiring as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, she has returned to her passions of music and art. Deborah formed her own Band, The Shugars Band. She also went back to making beautiful art after not painting for almost 30 years. Deborah is a self-taught artist and is painting and selling her art on her website and around the State of Maine. Deborah never runs out of ideas for paintings because of living in such a beautiful area. Deborah uses several art mediums, including watercolor, watercolor and pen, gouache, and acrylics. Deborah loves to paint nature, children, and often has whimsy in her artwork.
"A work of art which does not begin in emotion is not art."-Paul Cezanne
"My inspiration for my artwork comes from scenes or memories that evoke emotions. I have always taken photos over the decades of raising a family. I also take photos when my husband and I are out on a nice walk or exploring a new place, or on vacation. I have a file of photos I have taken labeled 'potential new artwork.' My own yard is full of beautiful nature as we live in a rural area with beautiful trees, flowers, hens, our kitty, and a large variety of birds and wildlife. As I paint. I am reliving the memory of the day."-Deb Shugars
What is a giclee print? Pronounced zhee-clay
Giclee printing is a term used for fine art printing to make a replica of original artwork. Giclee printing uses a special ink jet printer which sprays the ink onto paper or canvas. Giclee prints require inkjet printers and pigment-based inks only rather than dye-based inks. These inks are UV-resistant and require archival quality, 100% acid-free archival paper or canvas and have outstanding durability. Giclee prints must remain moisture free and for best results and longevity, do not display in direct sunlight. Discover unique fine art pieces and beautiful giclee prints created with passion and creativity.
