Sacramento artist, Deborah Mari Bonuccelli, was born in Springfield, Illinois. Her passion for the arts developed at an early age under the influence of her father, himself an accomplished painter. At a young age, she moved to California and began to expand her artistic horizons, mastering both oil and acrylic mediums. On a trip to England in 1987, she attained the inspiration and vision to expand on her self-taught foundation and take her painting to the next level.
The beauty of California provides the inspiration behind many of her current works. Deborah is the mother of two grown sons and resides in Sacramento, California with her husband of 37 years.
