Donna B Studios - Portraits and Works in Watercolor

Artist Statement

Hi.  My name is Donna and I wanted to welcome you to my site.  I've had a love of drawing and painting since childhood thanks to the encouragement of family, friends and teachers.

I've been a visual arts teacher in the public school system and have taught students of all ages and also adults.  Teaching the arts has brought me great joy.  It's been a wonderful experience to foster the development of so many of my students into gifted and talented artists,  including my son who is the talented web designer who has developed this website (proud mothers digress). But now I've retired from teaching and I have the time to devote to my passion….. painting in watercolors.

I studied Art at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania and graduated with a BS in Art Education.  As an Art teacher I have had to master many areas of Art such as drawing, ceramics, sculpture, textiles, and jewelry making but painting in watercolors and occasionally acrylics is what I truly enjoy.  I have continued my professional education throughout my career because I believe that we never truly stop learning and developing.  I hope to continue growing and improving and I hope that some of my skills and talents can now touch others by providing services to you by creating custom, one-of-a-kind artwork of you, your family, or your pets that you can cherish for a lifetime as it adorns the walls of your home or office.
