Dawna was an accomplished, artist, a creative, and an alchemist. She wasn't just a painter, but one who saw the world a little differently. And, she was truly one who knew how to transform things for the better. From humble beginnings, she created a magical life, full of beauty, creativity, and miracles.
Dawna is a well-known Utah artist whose paintings and prints were sold, worldwide, through Portfolio Graphics. Her art has blessed and uplifted the lives of so many, bringing forth light and beauty into an often dreary world. Perhaps the biggest factor in her success was the pure passion she had for painting. It was a "true love", and she painted, almost daily, until well into her 80's.
This particular painting is called "Fresh Cutts". Dawna made it in 1985. She is not in the database of artists on Kunstveiling & we submit the resources so she will be added to the database. Here are a few links to her work & obituary.
