About Deborah Ann Baker

Deborah Ann Baker Deborah Ann Baker is an Independent Artist, Illustrator, Author, Instructor and Speaker. She has instructed adults and teens and presented workshops for nearly two decades. Her art has appeared in books, shows, and online galleries. Her focus is to create art that inspires and celebrates life with deeper meaning touching the soul and ventures in magical moments in time called NOW. Careful observation of the order and design of the natural world gives her paintings a majestic grandeur inspired by lingering on interior moments and bringing them to life with soft gestures and brilliant color in its essence. Her joy of nurturing emotion until it rises to the heights of hope and light radiates from my canvases. Touches of whimsy, intuitive marks, and passages of color lyrically combine in my acrylic contemporary and abstract narratives to poetically inspire the spirit. It emphasizes the need for living creatures to be surrounded by living things or items — such as works of art that are inspired by nature. Born In New Orleans, Louisiana; Deborah was told by her first grade teacher that she had no imagination and wasn’t very good at Art because she drew a tree and colored it purple. After all there are no purple tree in Louisiana. After completing High School I finished my PhD in Psychology and MA in Business Administration. During her diverse business career she created art when time and place permitted. A career highlight when one artwork won People’s Choice Award in the exhibition. She later committed not to lose myself or my art ever again and I embarked on a program of study and consistent daily painting .practice. Over the years, my work has shifted from representational landscapes to expressive abstracts, but the goal has remained the same: TO MAKE ART FROM THE DEEPEST, MOST AUTHENTIC PARTS OF MYSELF, TO EXPRESS ALL THAT I FEEL, AND TO CONNECT WITH ART LOVERS WHO SEEK PAINTINGS FILLED WITH TRUTH AND AUTHENTICITY AND EMOTION.I’M ON A MISSION TO HELP YOU EXPLORE YOUR RICH INNER WORLD TO FEARLESS ART THROUGH WORKSHOPS AND RETREATS. She creates abstract Intuitive and innovative works of art that are beautiful, fascinating and thought-provoking. Inspired by nature, the human spirit, and the vibration of color that connects us all. Her paintings are an invitation to invoke a feeling, tell a story, and the opportunity to shine light out into the world. Her work is characterized by bold layering of brilliant colors and texture until the painting becomes a portal where we connect on a soulful and intimate level in adventures of magical moments in time called NOW. Her paintings convey a majestic grandeur inspired by lingering on interior moments and bringing them to life. Touches of whimsy, intuitive marks, and passages of color lyrically combine in her acrylic contemporary abstract narratives to poetically inspire the spirit. Statement: I usually look for a mood, event, bold, vibrant color and a sense of what’s outside shapes and shades. I and the piece are one experience. Going beyond what is obvious or on the surface, I use the medium of acrylic art to express feeling. My focus is to create art that inspires and celebrates life with deeper meaning touching the soul and ventures in magical moments in time called NOW Awards & Honors People’s Choice Award Abstract –Oakville’s Art Guild 2018 People’s Choice Award Abstract-Oakville’s Art Guild 2017 Second Place Adult Abstract – Southwest Washington Fair 2005 Teaching & Lecturing 2000 to present: Teaching Workshops for Non Profits: Group Workshops for Adults, Acrylic and Watercolor March 19-21, 2021 Gallery Show at Rainer Arts, Rainer, WA March 17, 2021 Gallery Show at Mermaid’s Museum, Aberdeen, WA 2020 Mentor for You can Paint online critique and training acrylic art 2018 -2019 Walks & Talks, Chehalis Land Trust Art in Nature Workshop – all ages Books Published 2020 Sacred Places, Poetry & Art by Deborah Ann Baker, PhD 2020 Artful Gift of Languoring, Poetry and Art by Deborah Ann Baker, PhD 2019 Moments Plucked Out of Time, Poetry & Art by Deborah Ann Baker, PhD 2018 Beginning Acrylics with Deborah Ann Baker, PhD, How to Acrylics 2016 Charlie’s Dream Children’s Book Commissions 2008 Christmas Card, Twin Star Credit Union, Lacey, WA 2010 Personal Portrait 2012 Antique Cars 2018 Personal Portrait with Dog 2019 Abstract Painting in Blue, Client 2020 Abstract in Red, Client 2023 Arts Walk Olympia Professional Memberships Olympia Art League, Olympia, WA Grays Harbor Art Walks, Grays Harbor Art Guild, Oakville Arts Fine Arts America, Online Gallery Tenino Artisan Art, Tenino, WA Arts Olympia, Olympia, WA Crowing Arts - JUDGE Accomplishments 2019 Certified Therapeutic Art Life Coach Certification Accredited 2018 Acrylic Painting, Universal Class Accredited IACET 20 Years’ experience in Management, Marketing, Relationship Building, Strategic Planning, Team Management, Collaboration, Problem Solving, Communication & Organization 20 Years teaching acrylic workshops to all ages Showcase online art gallery (Acrylic Giclée or Prints) a curated art program that recognizes artistic excellence
