"Human nature and the natural world inspire me. The materials I work with alone are inspiring with their natural beauty. The content of my work comes from life experiences such as longing and power." -Debra Baxter

I personally think Fashion is a form of Art. Debra Baxter is a great example of that. With her amazing Sculptures and Text Based Art, she is truly a talented designer. I am a big fan of her text art so i was very astonished that she has been sculpting jewelry for many years.
As a child she was obsessed with rocks. Debra was carving alabaster for several years before she become interested in other types of stones. Baxter says, "I am attracted to natural beauty in many forms and find it astonishing that nature could make such creations."
What i love most is every piece has a deeper meaning. Take the Crystal Brass Knuckles for example the real name is ( I am going to realign your chakras motherf***** ) As an artist she stays true to her self and that is amazing!
