Located in the heart of Downtown Pittsburgh’s Cultural District, Shaw Galleries specializes in antique maps, prints and works of historical importance spanning three centuries. Join us this Friday, April 5 There will be an Opening Reception for the exhibit "Deborah Baugh: Discovering Realities" this Friday evening, April 5, from 5 to 8 p.m.

This event is FREE and open to the public. Deborah Baugh will be exhibiting works in oil, acrylic, and some mixed media, with a strong expressionistic and fantasy influence, on canvas, board and paper; which includes portraiture, illustrations and drawings.



Deborah Baugh is a traditional artist from the Gulf Coast region of S. E. Texas, where she owned and operated an art studio, gallery and a photo studio. She worked for many years as an illustrator, for ad agencies, magazines, and the media, which allowed her to indulge in all forms of 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional art. Some of her more well known clients were Disney, Warner Bros., Coca Cola, Lenox, Fender and Jackson Guitar, Audi, the Charles Shultz family, Rickie Rocket, and Peter Maxx. She also won two design awards from General Motors, and one award from for Ford, for her work and concepts in custom design. Her work has been displayed all across the United States, Canada, England and Italy. She has been received as a guest artist in many large exhibits and shows, and has been published in art magazines, and art books. She loves to teach, and worked for many years as a star instructor for instructional seminars, in illustration, portraits, and design concepts.



Deborah's style has been described as abstract realism and expressionism, and because of her keen sense of color control, she has been sought out by other artists, for guidance in color theory, among other things. Her first love is the portrait, and even though she paints a wide range of subject matter, the portrait always seems to inspire her. Unlike some portrait artists, she prefers to capture moments in life, almost where the subject is involved with a task and looks up to see they are being captured on canvas.



Deborah Baugh is now living in Pittsburgh, Pa. with her husband Robert, where she now has the opportunity to work on her fine art canvases, and soon may be offering art classes.
