A long, long time ago, Deborah Willard was a clothing designer and artist living on St, John. She had a shop in the courtyard of the Lime Inn. She sold hand-painted clothing: t-shirts, dresses, hats, tank tops,
shawls, etc. featuring tropical designs, whimsical iguanas and lizards,
or customers’ requests.After 15 years, she left the island, in 2004.
RickG – a frequent contributor to the Virgin islands On-Line forum, noticed a post signed Deborahdesigns and one thing led to another.
Ms. Willard posted a a few weeks ago on the forum indicating she’s relocated to a studio in the downtown arts district of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, her home town. She now describes herself as
"Painter/Doodler/Scribbler/Illustrator/Graphic Designer/Surface
Designer/Hand
Painter/Calligrapher/Signwriter/Editor/Proofreader/Computer
Person/All-Purpose Creative Genius in nearly everything except food.
