Artist Statement:
In Donna’s own words…
“What inspires my work? I want my creation to invite a person to look further– to touch, feel the weight, the texture of surface detail, to see reflected light bounce off facets cut in glass or off hammered craters in metal. This is not a quick production line process. There are multiple steps involved. This can often result in hours poured into the development of a piece.”
“It is thrilling to wake up every morning knowing I get to work at what I love to do. I have dreams at night of new creations and formulations of enamels and how a piece might be engineered to fit better together. I can’t take a walk down the beach or through the hardware store without seeing something that will catch my eye, and I’ll think: “that would make a great design for my next piece.”
