Deb Weiser

Deb Weiser -- Lincoln Highway Arts Festival artist

My grandson had to write about his Nanny Deb for school and I thought this was a fitting introduction. Thank you, Nolan.

Her name is Debra Kathlene Weiser

She is my grandmother. She is married to my grandpa who is my dad’s dad. She came from Ireland. There are 2 Irelands. One is The Republic of Ireland and the other is Northern Ireland. She is from Northern Ireland.

She came to America about 40 years ago with her mom, dad and brothers and sisters. She started life in the United States as a high school student. She graduated within only 3 years and then went to college with a degree in Commercial Art.

She likes to paint, and I think she is really, really good. Some of her paintings look real and some look weird but they are still pretty. Sometimes she paints with acrylic paints and sometimes she paints with oil paints. She even mixes them too.

I am an artist currently residing in Iowa. My artwork, murals and faux finishes grace homes and businesses from the Florida Keys to Toronto, Canada and over to Italy, Ireland and Holland. I enjoy all mediums and incorporating textures. I am always trying something new and different but, of course, always return to the comfort of acrylics. I do a lot a commission work and you’ll find my prices affordable as I get great joy in making people happy with my concepts of their wishes. I am the owner amd lead teacher of the DKW Gallery in Marion.

See more of her work at the Lincoln Highway Arts Festival Sept. 18 in downtown Mount Vernon.
