Donna Bergman
Donna Bergman is a mixed-media collage artist living in Sarasota, FL. She has worked in a multitude of media throughout her life and the experiences gained from working in other media has contributed to her 2- & 3-dimensional mixed-media creations. She is drawn to organic forms and inspired by whimsical subjects. Bergman typically expresses this in her art using bright colors and lots of texture.
Originally I was an abstract oil painter. Intuitively I would add more paint, movement, shape and texture to the work. As the piece developed, the color would bring me into the painting. My work was emotionally expressive, pressing my feelings out onto the canvas. Now, drawing with pastels my work is more about deliberate choices. My painting compositions reflect my stories about travel, love and family. My inspiration is derived from mother nature, learning and exploring the world outside myself as well as my internal journey of self-reflection.
