Born and raised in Montgomery, Alabama, Donna Richardson's journey as an artist began at a young age, fueled by an innate passion for creativity. Despite her early passion, she decided to pursue a degree in Business Administration at Faulkner University. After years of balancing family life and corporate success, Donna felt a longing to reconnect with her artistic side. She explored various creative outlets, including dance, furniture restoration, and mural painting, but it was painting that truly ignited her soul. Donna's art serves as more than just a hobby; it's her spiritual escape, her way of finding joy and connection in the world. Her pieces, often inspired by the beauty of nature, burst with vibrant colors and dynamic compositions. Today, Donna resides in Prattville, Alabama, with her husband, William, and their furry companion, Rosco the Westie. She happily accepts commissions and shares her artwork with others, spreading happiness and inspiration wherever she goes. Through her art, Donna Richardson continues to weave her passion into every brushstroke, leaving a colorful imprint on the hearts of those who encounter her work.
