Debra Grogan Designs

Art has been a life-long passion and learning experience for Debra Grogan. A self-taught artist, she experimented with different mediums of expressive art forms, from papier-mâché to stained glass and ceramics, before she discovered her true love for painting. Ending a 15-year professional career in nursing, Debra went on to pursue her dreams of a career in the arts. A favorite George Eliot quote of Debra’s, “It is never too late to be what you might have been,” is the impetus for her ever-evolving life.

Debra draws her inspiration from nature, the world around her, and her personal sanctuary, her garden. “The colors and textures in my garden invigorate my artistic senses. Spring with all its promise, and fall with all its richness in color, are my favorite seasons.” Although she considers folk art her first love and most notable style, she has enjoyed the progression to watercolor style floral and textile designs along with many other art styles and offerings for which she is known today. Debra now designs full time from her busy studio, Debra Grogan Designs. Over the past decade, she has designed an impressive portfolio of products for leading gift companies, sold worldwide.

Along with her love of design, Debra is also an avid reader, gardener, foodie and cook, quilter and all around creative.  Debra resides in Michigan with her husband, Brian and dogs Charlie and Bailey. Although her dogs Chester, Daisy, Henry and an array of cats, are no longer with her, their faces grace the canvases of much of her artwork. She credits her continued success to her husband, family and wonderful friends who encourage, love and support her. Her grandchildren, Nolan, Emmy and Ruby inspire her every day.
