Debra Bryant

Debra is inspired by native Australian flora and fauna and fuses paint and collage to create unique pieces that bloom with lush colours, layers and textures on paper and canvas. Debra also dabbles in stained glass lead light and copper foil creations.

Debra creates her artworks by using a range of colours, layering and textures using acrylic paints.  These paintings are then cut with scissors and assembled and collaged on to stretched canvas or paper surface.

Debra is a Brisbane based visual artist with degrees in Visual Arts in Fine Arts and Art Education with extensive experience teaching in childcare, primary and secondary schools and to adults across Australia and the UK. Debra creates and sells: Original Artworks, Commission Pieces and Fine Art Reproductions.
