Deb
Haugen
United
States
Termed
by others as an “organic” artist, Deb Haugen has embraced the term as a way to
describe an artistic identity firmly rooted in the close observation of the
natural world. Her first exposure to nature’s endless variations was a nearby
swamp, which she avidly explored as a little girl. She channeled this
fascination into an art career, developing her sense of color and realism at the
Otis Institute of Art and Design.
Haugen
employs loose strokes of colors and tight repetitive marks in a visual language
that communicates nature’s hidden realities, found in the backyard gardens of
her homes in Hawaii and California or recalled from travels and memories. An
avid gardener and environmentalist, Haugen conceives of her craft in natural
terms: “I plant, I dig, I weed, I observe and I create.”
