Hi, my name is Maria Delle Donne. I live in the beautiful SW of Western Australia where I spend a lot of time in our precious bush and on our dynamic beaches, observing nature and watching the sky play out.
Creativity has always been an important part of my life and I began my career as a Stage and Costume Designer, where I found my love for the veil of mystery and dramatic lighting. For 23 years I have been combining these passions with my love for the human form. I draw so much inspiration from the lines and curves and movement of the body and enjoy exploring its beauty through charcoal and ink renderings.
Through my work I seek to express the sensuality of the figure and and embody the pleasure and depth of life, in our magnificent physical form, through light play and movement.
I am new to this, so I don't have many of pieces up yet but am working on it :)
