Founded in 2007, Deborah Grayson Studios offers collectible works of art and decorative accessories that reflect a modern soulful style for art lovers and collectors worldwide. Each work of art is skillfully constructed with special attention to detail in every step of the creative process. We take tremendous pride in our work. Our hope is that we will offer art that: invites spiritual connection and invokes a wonderful sense of nostalgia that inspires you and brings you joy.

Deborah Grayson Studios is my dreamworld. Contemporary quilts and dolls have been my passion since 1993 when I began to look for a way to push my work beyond simply painting on stretched canvas (though I still do that from time to time) into something more. I became interested in dimensional artwork (figures) and textured surfaces (quilts and hand pulled prints) as a way to say what I need to say about shape, color, line, love, life and spirit. In my work I use paint, dye, and clay to produce one-of-a-kind handcrafted dolls and other types of figurative sculpture, prints and contemporary quilts.

To foster continued interest and passion in these art forms, I give lectures and teach workshops for organizations and art centers throughout the southeastern United States. Recently, I have exhibited in both juried and invitational shows in Washington, DC, Kentucky, Ohio, Georgia and Pennsylvania. I am a member of the Professional Art Quilters Association- South (PAQA-South), Studio Art Quilts Associates (SAQA), Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) and the Women of Color Quilter’s Network. A strong believer in creating art that is sustainable and that celebrates strong design principles for modern living, I see myself as part of a generation of artists and artisans who make beautiful things to enrich our lives. Born in Washington, DC and raised in Montgomery County, MD, I currently live in Atlanta, GA with my family.
