Juror of Selections and Awards
Deborah LaFogg, PSA, IAPS MC, AFC
Deborah LaFogg Docherty’s art combines great two loves: her love of nature and her love of painting. She strives to give people a glimpse of how animals live in the wild, raise their young, court and survive. She paints a picture of a secret world that many never get a chance to see.
Her paintings have won National and International awards and have been included in Art museum shows in Florida, Utah, the International Festival for Natural Ecology Convention at the Lanwan Art Museum in Qingdao China with the Artists for Conservation and now has a painting on tour with the Art Renewal Centers Traveling Exhibition to New York City’s Salmagundi Club, Sotheby’s in Los Angeles and the MEAM Museum in Barcelona Spain.
In February of 2018 she was part of a group of artists to go to Kenya for conservation. The goal is to help with fund raising efforts to bring back the Northern White Rhino from the brink of Extinction. More to come.
In 2018 she was asked by the Florida National Parks Trust to create a painting for the Celebrating 50 years of Biscayne National Parks fund raiser, has won two Honorable Mentions in the Pastel Journal in 2016 and in The Artists Magazines Artistic Excellence 2018.
Membership affiliations include: signature member of the Artists for Conservation, the Pastel Society of America, The Salmagundi Art Club in NYC, an elected member of the Audubon Artists, a member of the Society of Animal Artists, the Women Artists of the West, the Oil Painters of America, member of the International Guild of Realism.
