Deborah Jane Batt

My work embodies both the abstract and representational and comes originally from the idea of community. The towns and structures we build and the way we shape and neglect the natural and urbanised landscape. In my pictures there is a melancholy a trace of something already lost and I try to recapture that moment in time.  I am a listed artist on the AXIS database and a member of The National Acrylic Painters Association
