Donna Schulz

Donna has loved to draw people, particularly their faces, since childhood. For her, the beauty of a face—its uniqueness, expression, even its irregularities—offers a way to glimpse a person's character and capture a special moment, a transitory mood. Donna engaged this interest in college, graduating as an art major, and returned to her artistic pursuits in full force over the last seven years, immersing herself in both pastel and oil portraiture.

Inspired by the work of John Singer Sargent and his wonderfully loose and painterly quality, her work, both in oil and pastels, aims not to delineate every detail of a person (or animal) but to capture a certain likeness, to convey a singular disposition, to suggest a true individual.
