Donia

Excerpts from the press about Donia and her work:

"Donia’s paintings are like the dreamscape on which we might enact our deepest
thoughts, fantasies or truth. They are color set to music, as if we had syncopated the
pigment. They are swimming, eyes open, under water. They are rolling all the way
down the hill. They are dancing with our eyes shut." - Monterey County Herald

"Donia Lilly calls herself an ethyrical artist, and we’re not about to argue it. In fact, she is producing some of the most emotive art out there… Talking with Donia amongst her finished and emerging pieces is like floating in a calm ocean where waves of ideas wash over you, break into other ideas and then circle back around to remind you of the multiple meanings embedded in each piece—and in each swirling thought." - Perigee Publication for the Arts

"Donia’s "finger paintings" are mature and thought provoking; they don't speak to her audience but stimulate their emotions. Aesthetic Evocations is a mesmerizing sensory experience. ...Judging from her paintings, [Donia’s] world-view is built on vivid colors and elegant, sweeping shapes that demand attention." - Reno News & Review
