Debi Starr Contemporary Art & Live Painting Services

As an award-winning contemporary artist with over three decades of experience, I have dedicated my life to creating vibrant, expressive art that captures the essence of emotion, movement, and personal journey. My work spans diverse mediums including acrylics, inks, watercolors, and innovative mixed-media techniques like Precious Metals, which reflect the layers of identity and experience. I have taught art to all ages, hosted live painting events at major festivals, and contributed to community projects such as Seabrooks Pelican statues.

My practice combines technical skill with a deep commitment to connecting with audiences through dynamic exhibitions, workshops, and custom commissions. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Houston Baptist University and a career rooted in both education and public engagement, I strive to make art accessible and meaningful to every viewer.

Debbies talent is beyond words! Our sweet girl suddenly passed away, so our friend surprised me with a Starr Art Gallery painting. As soon as I opened the box, it brought instant tears!
Shes so detailed and precise. Im actually ordering another painting from her, for a Christmas gift.

I was looking for a larger piece to go with the color scheme of my living room. Debi had a picture that had the perfect colors, but wasn't quite large enough for the space. I commissioned her to re-create the painting, and it turned out great.

Debi is an incredibly gifted and versatile artist! I am continually impressed by her creative vision and her unique use of color and texture. I am honored to own a fantastic pet portrait she painted of my dog and another painting from her Expressions collection. All of her collections are amazing!
