ARTIST DEBBIE HUGHBANKS
By Marilee Hudon
Art Chowder: Are you
classically trained, or self-
taught?
Debbie: I am not classically
trained. I took some art
classes in high school, but
that was decades ago! I
actually learn a lot from
watching videos, reading,
listening to other artists, and
asking lots of questions.
I practice, make a lot of
mistakes, and try to learn
from all of them along the
way.
Art Chowder: Do you have
a mentor, or someone you
admire?
