Graphic artist and illustrator; textile artist, jewellery maker. Urban sketcher. Writer, cartoonist. Nowadays I’m retired but still working in sketchbooks; I’ll carry on drawing until I can no longer hold a pencil.
Whatever I’m currently working on and thinking about is on Instagram; drawings at @deborahrehmat, cartoons and comic strips @the.unintentionals, and some of it appears here. Projects from 2024 include illustrations for the accordian-fold book of 30 drawings titled Tiny Paintings for Gaza which was sold through the Artist’s Supporting Palestine initiative, to raise money for the charity Medical Aid for Palestinians. Find it on the Illustrations page along with the “Bears from Ukraine” folding mini-book that I made as a download to raise money for charities working in Ukraine.
Other pages are mostly a record of past work and also include the blog posts for Drawing the Work, my sketch journaling project at Cliffe Castle in Keighley from 2025 to 2017, when I recorded the restoration of the park and Glasshouses.
