The Artist Spotlight is on Donna Join Our Trading Group
Name: Donna

About: I've been doing some sort of art or craft for as long as I can remember but over the last four or five years I've really turned towards papercraft, stamping, mixed media, altered art ... that sort of thing. Over the last few months I've also started to go back to drawing and painting again, something which I used to do alot when I was a child but then had let slip.
I can't really say what style I have, I'll leave that to others to judge, but I like to try different things, new techniques. Basically I get bored quickly! One thing I can definately say is I'm a fairly messy worker, at the end of a session the table looks like World War 3 has happened and if you can find an inch of spare space you'd be doing well! Art is my escape, somewhere where the worries of everyday life don't seem quite so real......a nice place to be.

Fave Artists: I don't really have any. My inspiration comes from the things around me, from seeing something and thinking .....I wonder if......

Fave Medium: Mixed media. The reason, well, in truth because I love to chuck just about everything on the table at a piece and see what happens!!
