ROSTER ARTISTS / ARTreach COMMUNITY ARTIST ROSTER / Donna Magana







Donna Magana, artist

Donna is a community artist for ARTreach, she facilitates workshops to create large scale collaborative paintings to encourage children to participate in the arts.

"When pressed to describe my artwork I tell people that it's "abstract with narrative symbolism." I usually get a shake of the head and a glazed look in return.  So I go on. 

My art work tells a story.  I use symbols-- faces, flowers, leaves, words, colors--- to describe an emotion or make a point.   I love to see the subtle interactions of colors and textures as I paint, and as I layer the colors over one another I think about how life is really just a series of layers, too.

I use bright vibrant and saturated colors that demand attention.  Life is an adventure, and I want my art to reflect that.  I hope you enjoy the ride!
