awards judge
DEBORAH TILBY/ SFCA, OPAM, AAPL
Deborah is a Canadian painter living on Vancouver Island on the West Coast of British Columbia. I grew up in Alberta and lived in England for many years before settling in BC. I am a signature member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and the American Artists Professional League and a Master in the Oil Painters of America.
I became a painter by way of being an observer –always noticing light and shadow, shapes, texture, composition and colour, and endeavoring to interpret those observations through painting has been a lifelong passion.
I am initially drawn to the light and shadow in the landscape and my intention is to be relatively faithful to the colour and light that nature so beautifully provides while experimenting and playing with the paint application.
I find that striving to accomplish this goal never ceases to be fascinating and deeply fulfilling.
selection process
Each entry will be displayed on the NOAPS website on the Associate Member Online Exhibition page.
IMPORTANT: The Judge of Awards makes selections based on the image entered. Make sure the image depicts a true representation of the painting. Each image should display the painting only; no frame or mat. The image should be properly oriented; please make sure your image is right side up.
sales
The paintings may be for sale or not for sale. All sales will be conducted through the artist, and no commission is due to NOAPS.
