SURREAL VISIONS
Debi Slowey-Raguso
By Aaron R. Fodiman
Debi Slowey-Raguso paints with strength and imagination. Her inspirations come from
science, math, myth and nature. Each is an experiment in composition, technique
and complexity. Her work is filled with a juxtaposition of ideas and beliefs, much as
Salvador Dalí found that the world of advanced physics and ancient legends could
be combined to create fascinating images that viewers can relate to in their own manner.
This 36-by-36-inch painting,
A Sign in the Orion Nebula,
is enhanced with crystals,
gold leaf and flocking.
