Episode 02 | Debra Cartwright


Get the lowdown on my favourite watercolor illustrator, New York based, Debra Cartwright; our very FIRST Texture Lounge Muse. Argh, so thrilled!

#TLMUSE01
DEBRA CARTWRIGHT

NEW YORK BASED WATERCOLOR ILLUSTRATOR KNOWN FOR HER ETHEREAL DEPICTIONS OF FASHION-FORWARD WOMEN WITH NATURALLY TEXTURED HAIR

 

 

From purchasing three of her prints 2 years ago, to vibing with her one-on-one in this episode despite the technical challenges (the internet did not want us to be great! but never fear, although not the best quality, we powered through with the podcast regardless via phone).

Debra shares with The Texture Lounge how she got started, what motivates her, who inspires her (can you guess?) and so much more.

Thank you Debra for being our first #TLMuse! 

Scope out just some of her work below and her Instagram page for much more @debracartwright.
