I’ve always believed that animals are God’s gentle way of speaking to us. They step into our lives with purpose - guiding, comforting, or simply reminding us that we are held. My paintings honour those sacred encounters.

I work traditionally in oils, using slow, tender layers of light to reveal the quiet message each animal carries. Horses, birds, foxes, dogs, cats, deer….each creature in my work is painted with reverence, as a spiritual companion rather than a subject.

You’ll often see golden strands woven through my paintings. I call this God’s Rope - the divine thread that connects us to the animals who walk beside us. Sometimes it glows softly; sometimes it swirls like a blessing carried on the wind. But it is always there, binding us in kindness and truth.

I paint from a lifetime of listening with my heart. My Virgo nature brings devotion, detail, and gentleness; my Wood Dragon spirit adds courage, intuition, and a deep belief in the unseen. Together, they shape my brushwork and my purpose.

I hope my paintings bring you the same comfort and hope that animals have always brought me. If you’ve ever felt the presence of a creature in your life as something more - a guide, a guardian, a whisper from heaven - you’re in the right place. Welcome.

Debbie is a British oil painter whose work explores the sacred bond between animals and the human spirit. Drawing on her lifelong reverence for nature and her belief that animals are messengers of God, she creates luminous, emotional paintings where horses, birds, dogs, foxes, and other creatures appear as guides, protectors, and companions.

Her paintings feature delicate golden threads - symbolic of God’s Rope - linking each animal to the human soul. These threads represent connection, guidance, and the invisible comfort we feel when animals cross our path.

Working full-time from her home studio in the UK, Debbie blends traditional oil techniques with a soft, spiritual atmosphere. At 61, she paints with the steady hand of someone who has lived deeply, loved fiercely, and learned to listen to the quiet language of animals.

Her work is collected by those who seek meaning, comfort, and emotional truth in art - especially people who feel a spiritual connection to animals.
