Debra Alexander
Debra Alexander has been part of the ECF Art Centers program since 2006. Her artistic development dates back to the age of twelve when her mother first bought her a paint-by- numbers kit. Since then, she has developed a body of work known for it’s simple yet striking balance between color and composition. Her strong sense of color and design is also reflected in her personal sense of style - Alexander’s wardrobe is as diverse as it is colorful and always ahead of the curve. Throughout her years as a member of the community of artists at the Downtown Art Center, her artistic practice has remained remarkably focused. She rarely spends more than a few minutes a day socializing before immersing herself in her work. Her need to create something beautiful and harmonious represents not only a deep commitment to her craft but also an authentic mode of expression. When reflecting upon her creative practice, Alexander states, “I can be myself through my artwork.”
