About The Artwork
Sometimes my art comes intuitively, but other times I wake up with a vision and rush into the studio to create it. On those days I forget to eat and I zoom around the studio in a kind of frenetic passion. Painting Billy Joel was pure passion. With so much going on in the world I was thinking about our sanctuary cities and especially about New York. In the midst of one of our greatest tragedies here in the U.S., we saw New Yorkers pull together and help one another. No one cared about ethnicity, race, religion, or sexual orientation. Most reacted with human compassion, a willingness to look beyond our outer appearances -and worked on a soul level - to help one another. That's part of what makes New Yorkers so great, the diverse melting pot of people who live there! Not to mention great shows, museums and some of the best damn pizza and bagels. Billy Joel wrote New York State of Mind on his way from L.A. to support New York after then President Ford proposed to veto a New York bailout. He was on a bus taking the HUDSON RIVER LINE when the idea for this song came to him. The inspiration for the song came from his pride in returning to New York. It appeared on his 1976 TURNSTILES album. Measures 24 x 24 x .75" on stretched canvas with the sides painted black. Signed front left and en verso Archival quality paints, gels and UV gloss varnish. Ready to hang. Accompanied by Certificate of Authenticity.

Globally collected artist Deb Breton is an abstract expressionist artist living & working in Northern California, U.S. Hi, I’m Deb, In school, I was that quirky kid who was always drawing during English Literature class, or backstage painting sets for the Drama Department. At the top of my “career,” I was an artist for notable clients Nestle, Warner Brothers, and the Dali Museum. But I was not happy with the corporate hustle. So, I picked up woodturning, which eventually led me full circle back to painting. You will find me in my studio working with acrylics, oils, ink, and spray paint. My tools are oftentimes things like sponges, flowers, branches, and squeegees. I tend to break many of the rules that I was taught in art. But the hardest thing for me to learn was how to step out of my own way and let creativity flow. My art reflects my scattered mind —inspired by life, nature, the universe and sometimes even the beat of my playlist. It is extremely difficult for me to stay on script—my ADHD ensures that. Luckily, I find peace and calm in painting. Art is a reminder for us to honor our authentic selves in a world that often tries to box us in.
