Donna, lives amongst the magnificent rolling hills of West Gippsland, Victoria. Born in Jindivick, inspiration is drawn from her farming and bush land surrounds and upbringing.
The organic, obscure, and imperfect shapes, forms, and lines of the landscape... the multitude of colour variations... purity and strength of Mother Nature herself are prevalent throughout Donna's work both consciously and sub-consciously.
The current focus of her art journey is the exploration of contemporary, abstract and semi-abstract art. She wants to create interest with colour, shape, movement and texture, ultimately capturing the aspects of nature, like the dabbled shadows of treetops on the ground, the obscure shapes and enchantingly colours of the rich countryside and it’s flora.
“My work is about capturing (or emanating) emotion from the strong connection I feel with this area. I’m clearly influenced by my surrounds and the beautiful colours and forms found within the exquisite Gippsland landscape I live in.”
Donna is looking forward to developing future pieces and series representing the beautiful, natural countryside and bushland forms, lines, curves and colours she is surrounded by.
