Hello and welcome to Bramble Hare Studio, the virtual nook that houses the whimsical art and illustration of Deborah Sheehy.

Here you will find creatures of all furs and feathers in pencil and paint, on paper and canvas.

Formed in the inner forests of the imagination, these works are inspired by the wild animals of the earth, and stories, whether known or yet untold.

  • "Deborah's whimsical paintings and drawings conjure up memories of animals portrayed in antique children’s storybooks…"

“ Although very dark and simply presented, this is an atmospheric and beautifully lit composition. The limited tones provide a wonderful dramatic tension and a great sense of the scale and mystery of the woods through soft and interesting mark-making.”
