Debbie Ma, American, born in the Philippines of Chinese descent, is a graduate of Parsons School of Design (New York). She is both graphic artist and fine artist whose designs have successfully graced products of major cosmetic companies. She has worked in New York City for many years and her studio specialized in packaging design.
Her list of clients included Revlon, Almay, Maybelline, Elizabeth Arden, Cosmair/ L’Oreal, Armani, Ralph Lauren, Paloma Picasso, Esteee Lauder, Donna Karan, Aveda, Marc Jacobs. Michael Kors, Givenchy/Louise Vuitton, Kenneth Cole, and Godiva.
She has painted all her life and has used her extensive experience in graphic design in her paintings. She currently lives and works on the North Shore East End of Long Island, and owns an art gallery in New York.
Her large abstract paintings in marble dust on canvas explore the complex multidimensionality of geometric forms, in a monochromatic palette and texture. She creates a tapestry of quiet patterns that exude expressiveness through the application of a palpapble matrix of marble dust and pigments. Her contemporary abstract paintings are visual two-dimensional sculptures.
