Debra Joyce Studio is the business name & "nom du peintre" of Artist Debra McGlinchie. The Name Joyce is an homage to my paternal Grandmother Genevieve Joyce McGlinchie (always known as Joyce) who was in life always my greatest supporter & still a great influence. I have had a lifelong passion for art & design and have worked as a Fashion designer, in House & Garden Design, Graphic Design, Visual Display and completed studies & practise in an array of Creative & Technical Disciplines. Late in 2015 I moved to an idyllic island and have been slowly renovating a Queenslander cottage (which I have named "Plumeria" after one of my favourite flowers & subjects), creating the surrounding garden (planted with a multitude of Plumeria) & focusing on my painting - pursuing my dream to paint & create full time. I'm currently producing large & small vibrant canvases focused around flowers, fruit and my day to day observations - celebrating the often unnoticed Beauty & Symbolism in the everyday. Also a series of icons featuring creative women – but welcome commissions on most subjects. I derive a great deal of joy from painting & hope my works bring joy to the viewer too.
