"Wonderful consultation! I had been pondering the idea of a personalized artbag for my 40th Birthday for quite some time. During a recent trip to London, I had the pleasure of meeting Debra in person and visiting her charming studio located in Amersham. Our communication was seamless, as we connected through both email and Zoom, which made the process even more enjoyable. I couldn't be more thrilled with the final result! The artbag exceeded all my expectations, and I truly love it! Debra, you are incredibly talented! I hope you can visit me in New York during your next trip here; it would be wonderful to catch up again!"

"Just what I was looking for my hall decoration. I actually bought this directly from the artist after seeing it in my local gallery. They weren't very knowledgeable about the artist so I did some research and contacted her directly. Debra was so much fun to work with and I am thrilled with my creation. It is my happy place! The theme is Paris as I was married there and so I asked Debra to add an Eifel Tower! "
— Lisa, Conneticuit
Paris Is Always A Good Idea
"Custom order to integrate with my pop art collection. Both debra and I worked patiently to create just what I had in my mind to go into my MIAMI home.

Prestigeous client Stories Images
Wanrooij Gallery Amsterdam represented my work and sold the first extra-large Artbag in 2012 to the prestigious Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten in Hamburg. This historic grand hotel sits on the Inner Alster Lake, and in its exquisite ladies' bathroom off the reception lobby, there is the most exclusive presentation "Just for the Ladies," at the far end of the powder room, guarded by a traditionally dressed chambermaid. The artwork sits in a stunning custom illuminated mirrored case sunk into the mirrored wall. This flawless display showcases the Artbag, which contains Chanel, Dior, a small gold pistol, perfume, and red lipstick. The sale was brokered by Martin Wanrooij Gallery in the Netherlands – the gallery is internationally renowned for its innovative, challenging, and inspiring art with character. The gallery provides a prominent stage for both emerging and acclaimed artists, creating a total art experience. I made several commissions for Martin's customers - I have great respect for him as a gallerist and art professional.
