Country Days
It is traditional to animate the pastoral landscape with characters, and Debra applies this tradition with an irreverent, often humorous twist. She and her husband had a small hobby farm for a number of years, and like most "hobby farmers", they ended up with a petting zoo instead of a productive farm! They played host to all types of livestock, large and small, and their personalities come through in little stories tucked into the pastoral landscape.
From 1999 until 2006, Pine Ridge Art Inc. published Debra's "interpretations of life on the farm" in a series of calendars. The last edition of this series was done for the 2007 calendar year.
