As the essayist observes, “An elliptical light washes over many of Deborah Grice’s recent landscape paintings, suggesting either early morning or dusk—those fleeting moments when natural phenomena merge into an indistinct, profound stillness. The only hints of human presence are the precise outlines of what seem to be aircraft sightlines or the delicate tracery of lights skimming distant shores across an expansive stretch of water.”

Deborah’s paintings invite us to pause and reflect. She shares, “I think my work can be overlooked in today’s art climate, where bold statements with instantly digestible messages dominate. My work demands time to ponder… If viewers can see their innermost selves reflected in my paintings, then I have achieved my goal.”
