Top Local Artist, Amy Donaldson Attracts National Attention at Art Basel Miami

JANUARY 10, 2013 BY  LEAVE A COMMENT
A native of Jacksonville Beach, Florida, Amy Donaldson creates abstract landscape paintings in a unique style that combines visual and visceral elements of her experiences of the world. Engaging with the world around her gives Donaldson a deeply personal feeling for humanity and accounts for the range and rich texture of her work. Combining crushed or powdered natural pigments with oil paint, she executes her paintings with tools other than traditional brushes. Donaldson attacks her canvases in an additive and subtractive process—much like a sculptor—to achieve a dynamic, vibrant surface. Donaldson recently participated in Art Basel Miami and is rapidly gaining national attention. She is represented locally by Stellers Gallery at Ponte Vedra.

The Neglected Chair.

Home with Maddie

Hanging with Norah, Natalie, and Louis, it’s what I needed after a crescendoing year with Art Basel as the finale! I’m enjoying a bowl of my first homemade chicken noodle soup. Not bad! A week off from painting and I’m missing it. Inspiration has been building, thoughts of the exciting new year bubble.  As I rest in my leather chair, I notice it’s still crisp and new after a year,  I can’t sit for long, with new blank canvases to butter with oil paint, I’m fresh and ready to get back into the studio!

Art Basel Miami Beach, 2012

Art Basel is one of the most prestigious art shows in the Americas. Artist and collectors from all over the world come to Miami for four colorful days. I was honored to showcase my artwork in two galleries. Anthony Liggins Gallery in South Beach, and Art Fusion Galleries in the Miami Wynwood Art District. Miami was full of energy.  It was exciting to be a part of both galleries during such an epic modern art event. My new collection vibrantly hung on the expansive white walls like candy and full of life. I enjoyed meeting art lovers, collectors and artist. It was a great success and unforgettable experience.

Waves of Summer

The Summer has washed in, walking on the beach I’m excited about all the jewel tones I see in the salty water. This is my latest piece and I love the continuous movement, and mysterious layers that are representative of human nature moving through life.

Pigments with Purpose

Today is a new fresh day. I am ready to dive into my powdery pigments. They are like colorful candy to my eyes. I love to mix new colors on the canvas with my fingers and work the texture layer upon layer, like a cake. Each layer chisels the stress and frustrations of life away from my heart. I think about my family and friends and those who are in difficult times.
I will then finish the piece with energetic bounces of color that dance though the painting representing laughter and joy. With each painting I want to bring life and love to hurting hearts and struggling souls.

Natural Urge.

I experience the world visually. Using layers on the canvas I create depth and texture. Looking at old walls and natural stone I am inspired by the natural earthy colors. Today I worked with my natural pigments and created a unique painting in a square format.
