Debbie Caruana Dingli

Debbie Caruana Dingli has been painting steadily since her first exhibition in 1985. She paints mostly in watercolour, her favourite subjects being people and animals. Debbie adopts a cartoon style when expressing a more serious side to her.

At Lily Agius Gallery, Debbie shall show a number of never-seen-before portraits in oils. For the last couple of years she has joined Celia Borg Carodona and Francesca Balzan at Celia’s studio in Lija, painting a different model every Tuesday evening. Debbie finds the three hours a race against time to capture both likeness and personality of the sitter, this helps a spontaneous approach.

At the moment, Debbie is working towards her next cartoon exhibition to be held next Febuary in Paris, entitled ‘2012: End of the World’.
