June Featured Artist: Deb Haugen

There are certain artists whose work just instantly resonates with me.  Perhaps it’s their style or subject matter, but in the case of this month’s Featured Artist, Deb Haugen, it’s both.  When I first saw her work waaay back in 2011, I immediately responded to the free flowing naturalness to her work.

Since then, Deb’s work has evolved beautifully, in some cases incorporating graphic drawing as in her ink pieces featured above.  These intuitive drawings have a delicious tension between the concrete illustrative quality of intricate patterns and the bright, watery world surrounding them.

I’m not the only one who is drawn to these organic beauties– Neiman Marcus and Crate & Barrel have both carried Deb’s prints ( currently available through Neiman Marcus, new large print to come for C&B! ).  But you can also purchase Deb’s work directly through her own website shop!  Gorgeous work at super affordable prices, you can’t go wrong!

To see more of Deb Haugen‘s work, please visit her website and be sure to follow her on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram to keep up with what she’s up to!  You’ll be seeing more of Deb’s work around the blog & Artsy Forager social media all June long!

    these pieces are fantastic. I always find it strange how I can enjoy so many of the creations and art that is floating around the web but every once in a while I’ll come across a piece that makes me excited and really resonates. There’s something about that 4th piece that gives me all the feels. Thank you for sharing these. I’m excited to have discovered someone new.

      Glad you enjoyed Deb’s work, Hannah! I agree, there is an abundance of interesting and beautiful work to be found, but every once in a while, a certain piece just grabs us and “gives us all the feels” ( love that phrase! ). Thanks for dropping by!
