Donna Robertson began her art career in Kansas City in 1979, where she was an active member in the Greater Kansas City Art Association and received numerous awards and purchase prizes in regional and local shows. She moved to North Carolina in 1989 and, with her daughter who is also an artist, owned a gallery in Wilmington until 1994. Donna now lives in Beaufort, NC. Until 2002, she worked almost exclusively in watercolor and collage. A non-credit course in the French impressionists led to an interest in oils, which is her current focus. Among the galleries who show her work are Sandy Bay Gallery at Hatteras, Pea Island Gallery at Salvo on the Outer Banks, Greenleaf Gallery at Duck, Premieres Gallery at Pawley’s Island and Gallery 5800 in Richmond. She has had work accepted in the North Carolina Watercolor Society shows, and in the show for women artists of North Carolina – Through Women’s Eyes, By Women’s Hands at Chapel Hill. She has also been represented in the Wilmington exhibition, Artists of Southeastern North Carolina. On creativity…”I love paint…watercolor, oil, pastel…the whole process of creating! I love the effects of light on color and the constant challenge to grow in any art medium. Art connects me with the deepest aspects of myself and, when it succeeds, it connects me with others…” |
