Biography
English artist Debbie Ironmonger was born in 1959 and has been drawing for as long as she can remember. Married for 21 years with an 18 year old son and a psychotic cross German Shepherd called Dwight.
“I am a firm believer in the fact that what you see is what you get! Therefore my artwork has no hidden messages, no spiritual meanings, no deep emotions – what you see is what you get! I believe in honest art, simple and straightforward. My art is art with attitude – "in your face" art! I am a self taught artist who was not given the opportunity to attend art school – as it was called in the 70’s – as my mother was bringing up 7 children on her own. Being the eldest I had to find a job to bring money in. I spent the next 15 years doing a job I hated and drawing in my spare time. I love portraiture and most of my drawings were done with pencil and then black ink on cartridge. It has been a natural – although recent – progression to acrylics on canvas, still sticking to my simplistic style but now in Mars black and Titanium white! I spend most weekends ensconced in my "garret"! My paintings are on 30x20 canvas although I also like to do the larger canvasses such as my "Jailhouse Rock" painting. I work as a teaching assistant in a primary school in Hull and paint in my spare time (what's spare time?)”
Debbie has exhibited in her home town and has sold pieces worldwide.
