Artist Profile
Donna Francesca
Over the past few years, I have been on a journey of artistic exploration and experimentation. Delving deep into uncharted territories, I’ve navigated realms of creativity to uncover my artistic voice.
By integrating my diverse influences and interests which include my professional experience in photography, studies of holistic health and interest in ecological environmental issues I feel that I have developed an expressive body of work which is a tribute to the breathtaking Devon coastline and the profound connection I have forged with its awe-inspiring natural beauty.
Primarily I work in oils; alla prima, this enables me to capture the intense emotionality of the weather. I start by making small studies on paper, exploring my ideas quickly and without expectation. They may inform a painting or act as a testing ground for mark making. Progressing onto canvas, I play and move paint intuitively. Using divers viscosities of paint and employing media such as, marble dust and ash I develop texture and interest until the painting reveals itself.
Ultimately I aspire that my work conveys my deep reverence for the emotive and healing powers of our natural world.
