Donna has had a long and varied love of woodworking, but carving
has held center stage since 1995 when she attended her first meeting
of the Central Texas Woodcarvers' Association.
She started teaching soon after designing her first piece of 'wearable
art', a hummingbird pin, in 1997. That led to writing many how-to
articles for Carving Magazine in how to make butterflies, Celtic
Knots, Peeking Mice, and many other carving projects. She has also
been published in other woodworking magazines with how-to articles.
After raising her family, she graduated from the University of Texas,
Austin with a BFA in Studio Art and a BA in Art History, with honors,
PBK. With her background in painting, pottery, stained glass, metals,
and illustration, Donna considers wood carving to be a great medium
of expression. Wood can be shaped in so many different ways that
there seems to be no end to the learning process. This is a good
thing!
Donna travels around the country to share her love of woodworking
with both carving seminars and hands-on classes in how to make band
saw boxes as she showed in her book: The Ultimate Band Saw Box Book.
