About this work
Donna works on paper and canvas, in a mix of charcoal, pastel, and acrylic, most often leaving her under-drawing visible. In the artwork, the cowgirl achieves the status of a heroine, and these images have brought her national attention, recognition, accolades, and success. Her work is rich with symbolism and allusions to classical mythology, but the viewer does not need to be familiar with the references to appreciate the female affirmations and the joy of life apparent in each piece.
