Donna Sharam My Art is for Everyone Donna Sharam is an Australian based artist and designer. Her home and studio can be found in the rolling hills and huge skies of the world-renowned Byron Bay hinterland. Donna’s art can be found in homes from London to Milan to Miami and beyond. Donna’s paintings explode with colour and joyful images. Inspired by a combination of her vivid imagination and observation of the natural world around her, they directly reflect her zest for life. Her use of gestural brushstrokes, spontaneous mark making, emotive colours and action painting techniques create works that are highly individual in execution and style. While Donna’s work is not confined to any single school of painting her images are reminiscent of fauvist expressionism, known for its use of luminous, pure colours and bold, distinctive brushwork. Donna Says “As for my painting, I think the brush merely tints the canvas: it is imagination that produces art. I have always been drawn to the quirky and different. ‘Normal’ is not a word I use. My work owes nothing to tradition: I paint with joy and passion and my art is for everyone”. Donna has had many artistic influences in her life. Two that stand out are Yayoi Kusama and Friedrich Hundertwasser for their use of colour, motifs and imagination in a non-traditional way “ Products featuring Donna’s art sell worldwide, her collaboration with the iconic Australian brand Maxwell Williams has seen multi-million products featuring her art sold in over 20 countries.
