Debbie Bakker's Vibrant watercolor captures the glow of the summer sun in this collection of florals and succulents, just in time to sweep away the winter chill. Debbie's intense close-ups and realism invites the viewer to revel in nature's gorgeous details. Artist says "I strive to capture the tiniest nuances that make the natural world so fascinating and beautiful - the shadows that create the curl of a petal, the pattern of a succulent's thorns, the symmetry of a blooming rose." Debbie's mastery of transparent watercolor enables her paintings to glow with luminous colors and detail. Debbie has a degree in Illustration from the Academy of Art University, SF. She is a member of local, state, and national watercolor associations. For more information about Debbie, please visit her website at www.debbiebakker.com.
