The DeBilzan Galleries represent more than just a collection of paintings — they embody the spirit and storytelling of renowned artist William DeBilzan, whose work has captivated audiences for over three decades.
Now entering his third professional decade, DeBilzan’s art is collected and exhibited across the globe — from the iconic Burj Khalifa in Dubai to the distinguished Marriott Central Park in New York City.
Known for his elongated abstract figures, layered textures, and Caribbean-inspired color palettes, DeBilzan’s work evokes a deep sense of emotional connection and personal reflection. Collectors, hoteliers, and designers often speak of the “good vibes” his paintings bring into their spaces — a signature quality that makes his art both instantly recognizable and memorably uplifting.
DeBilzan began his journey as a self-taught artist in Laguna Beach, California, where he opened his first gallery more than 30 years ago. His unique vision quickly gained national attention, leading to the expansion of his galleries into Santa Fe, New Mexico; Miami Beach; and now for over 23 years, Delray Beach, Florida, where his flagship gallery remains a cornerstone of the local art scene.
Now, Art Highlands Gallery in Highlands, North Carolina is proud to introduce William DeBilzan’s celebrated work to the Blue Ridge Mountains. His presence adds a dynamic and worldly dimension to the gallery, offering residents and visitors a chance to engage with an artist whose work transcends borders and speaks to the universal human experience.
This expansion also marks a new chapter in DeBilzan’s creative evolution.
Merging his passion for art with innovation and design, he recently launched the DeBilzan Art Car Movement, featuring a Tesla Cybertruck wrapped in his artwork — a striking fusion of mobility and expression. This mobile masterpiece is more than just an eye-catching vehicle; it’s a statement of freedom, individuality, and the power of creativity in motion.
Whether his work is hanging in a five-star hotel, displayed in a luxury gallery, or cruising through mountain roads on the side of a Cybertruck, William DeBilzan continues to create immersive, feel-good experiences that connect people to art in meaningful ways.
His story is one of passion, reinvention, and relentless imagination — and now, thanks to Art Highlands Gallery, his journey finds a new chapter nestled among the natural beauty of North Carolina’s Highlands.
There’ll be wine receptions every Friday from 4:00 to 6:00 P.M. in June. For information about appearances by Debilzan, visit arthighlands.com.
