ARTIST STATEMENT

“Ultimately, the harmony I’m striving for is about connection—the way each component resonates and interacts within my work. My goal is to enchant the viewer, stir imagination, and feel each painting’s heartbeat.”

ARTIST BIO

Debby Scherer’s work is inspired by personal photographs. She uses them to create compositions that push beyond realistic imagery in a way that connects to her soul.

Driven by her love for the human spirit, the ocean, nature, and the vibrancy of city life, the subject matter of her artwork is often a single spontaneous moment that moved her. Debby is captivated by the ways light plays with shadow, how tranquility juxtaposes with edginess, and how order exists within chaos. These beautiful differences challenge her to create work that is both visually and emotionally stirring.

Scherer’s technique is influenced by her extensive global experiences. She lived in Germany for 28 years of her adult life, honing her skills through study in prestigious European art academies and intensely focused mentorships under renowned artists. One of her biggest lessons from these years of training is that “harmony in an artwork is about connection” and it is her job to celebrate how each component of composition, each element of design, resonates and interacts within a piece. It is important to first create something that deeply matters to her – and the connection to the viewer follows when the work is truly authentic.
