An appreciation for nature's joyful, simple beauty coupled with a desire to interpret this emotional connection through art has been a lifelong inspiration for Debbie Milling.

As a child, Debbie spent countless hours drawing and painting horses and spent her summers at McGregor Lake in Quebec immersed in watercolours.

Currently, Debbie is expressing her fascination with waterfront and nature scenes in oils. Her travels have taken her to the Canadian East Coast, the Gaineau Hills, the Muskokas, the Georgian Bay region and recently Vancouver Island and the Collingwood area north of Toronto.

In addition to "open air" sketching in the field, inspiration constantly comes from Debbie's studio overlooking the Rideau River.
