Welcome to Deborah Gabris's Online Art Gallery

Metal-Sculpture/Polar-Bear-O-C1.jpg

As you view my art, whether it
is a watercolor painting, metal
sculpture or photograph
I hope you discover new
facets about the subjects I
have portrayed. While
mainly executing in a real-
istic style, I use my own
personal interpretation
and expression. 

Polar Bear, a metal sculpture
The polar bear is made of steel welding rods using an acetylene and oxygen torch to weld it. 

Bonny-Doon-in-Spring.jpg

Bonny Doom Beach in Spring, watercolor painting

Spring adds a new dimension
to the beach. With colorful
fields of wild flowers and birds
singing, the coastal land
becomes a stunning contrast
to the rugged high cliffs and
sea. The purple flowers are 
seaside daisies and the
yellow flowers maybe wild
mustard.  

When the sea is rough, this
is an excellent place to go
to see the waves crashing
against the marine terraces
at the base of the cliffs.  Between the sound and height of the sprays it is a very dynamic sight. The marine terraces were once the ocean floor and were carved flat by the action of the ocean. They were raised above sea level about 10,000 years ago.

 Rembrant Tulips, a Photo on Canvas

A photograph is a wonderful
way to capture a moment in
time. The subject or scene
will change, so you can not
quite photograph it the same
way again. Even when you
take a series of photographs
at one time, they are different.
This aspic of photography is
what makes us try over and
over again to take that perfect
picture. Working digitally to
enhance a photograph can be
a very creative endeavor, it
maybe only slight changes
and cropping or quite involved.

Tulips are beautiful subjects to photograph. In this photograph I had a pleasant surprise when I opened it on the computer and saw how the camera had caught the shot.   The tulips are bright and colorful with a background of black creating good negative space between them and near some of the edges.  This photograph is good for a photo on canvas with a gallery wrap, some of the tulips go on the sides with other places it is black

Orca-fp.jpg

Orac, a metal sculpture with stain glass

The Orca is first made with steel welding
rods with more steel welding on to give it
the smooth look.  The structure that
holds up the orca and creates a place to
lead solder the stain glass is made of steel
rods.  The whole metal sculpture was then
zinc plated so that the stain grass
surround with zinc cane could then be
soldered to the steel rods that created
the waves.
