Meet the Artist – Deborah Fallas

Description

To launch the VIBRANT SUMMER exhibition we are delighted to welcome the artist Deborah Fallas to the gallery to talk about her inspiration and answer any questions you might have.

Deborah will be here between 2 and 3.30 pm on Saturday 7 May so please come along and say hello.

Deborah has lived in the Scottish Borders for over 30 years.  In the past few years, looking for an additional outlet for creative ideas, she has returned to painting, which she always loved.

She paints mostly in acrylics and sometimes in oils as she loves the bright colours she can achieve with them and their versatility.

“I also only paint what I myself would like to have on my wall at home,” says Deborah.  “If I wouldn’t be happy looking at it every day, I won’t paint it.”

Deborah’ favourite subject is flowers.  It reflects her love of colour and nature.  “I particularly love big full blooms as I feel they are a celebration of colour and life,” she continues   “I feel happy creating my work and I would love to think my paintings make other people happy too.”

The exhibition includes nine paintings in oil and acrylic of vibrant summer flowers and continues until July 2 2022.
