Donna: “My preference is uplifting art. I capture beautiful moments in a minimalistic way. A sensation or strong emotion. Some experiences are precious and special. Then I am only aware of the here and now. Those are the moments I want to share. Colorful, sleek, and extremely precise in oil paint. ” The characteristic line figures with spiral face are also available in sculpture form. The same smooth lines rendered in materials such as bronze, aluminum and steel are made in her studio in Zandvoort
