On her website, Deutschman reminisces about family traditions and outings that shaped her early life and development. She remembers that her favorite treat was when her mother brought home a fresh pad of drawing paper. Today, she continues to sketch as inspiration and, along the way to creating a painting, as a way of trying out certain formal and color ideas. Into this practice she has incorporated both photography as a means of recording specific moments, and even more recently digital tools (hardware and software) for continued experimentation.
