“Deckbar regarded her subjects, figure and landscape alike, with the stark opticality of a new American realism, forthright in its presentation but strenuously devoid of affect…. Finding in the rendition of space the magic of the ineffable.

Her world works on her soul - and ours - through her eyes, always promising another small, delicious revelation that at once reifies the endurance of nature.”
— Peter Frank

“Perhaps the best way to describe Adrian Deckbar’s new work is to recognize it as analogous to beholding something for the very first time. In Deckbar’s paintings, this is manifested through the overall presence of a dreamlike opulence, rendered with crystal clear clarity and a reverence for being itself.

Deckbar is a dedicated seeker of knowledge, beauty and truth who uses a camera to observe and a paintbrush to record her findings. ”
— David S. Rubin
