"Beautiful Whisper", Original Mixed Media Painting by Colorado Artist, Donna L. Martin

"Beautiful Whisper"

This piece is an original mixed media creation...my version of aspen trees. It was created on a beautifully recycled wooden palette. I used acrylic paints, inks, texture paste, and painted paper. Each individual leaf was painted, torn from paper, and carefully adhered to the tree.

This piece was created with heart and soul. I am so blessed to be able to live in Colorado and I love the fact that I was born and raised here. I adore the mountains, the trees, the rugged terrain of this state. Colorado is truly an inspiration to me.

This piece is sold, but commissions are welcome. I'd also love to hear from you!

Flying Free and Finding My Voice

Fly Free I have always been one of those people who is naturally shy. It may have a little to do with the way we were raised, we were always told that children "are to be seen and not heard". Growing up in that culture, I've always had trouble expressing what I'm feeling or saying what I wanted to say. Why would I have anything worth saying? I always felt that when I finally was able to say something, was anyone really listening? To add to this, I grew up feeling like I really didn't fit in anywhere, that I was usually the odd one out. I was the one who got picked last for the team, didn't stand up for myself...I didn't know how, didn't have " permission ". I couldn't really find my place, or my voice. I attended Columbine High School for one semester before we moved to a wonderful little small Texas town. When I first got there, the kids in ...

"Troyce's Heart", original mixed media painting by Colorado artist, Donna L. Martin

Troyce's Heart This is an original mixed media piece that was specially created for a little baby boy that will be undergoing heart surgery next month. He has been through such a rough time already, but he has a strong family and a contagious smile! His Grandmother wanted me to create something special for his Mom and Dad as they travel this journey. I was honored when she asked me to do this piece. Through the years I've always felt close to her, even with all the twists and turns our lives have taken. She and her family hold a special place in my heart. I have no idea where the inspiration for this piece came from. Even the colors are nothing like what I had originally planned. Doug Collins, from Redeemwood provided the small wooden pallet that the heart was constructed on. It seemed like the perfect special touch for this piece. There are quite a few layers of paper...
