Donna McGinnis Art
American, b. 1963
Donna McGinnis is known for her imagined land and skyscapes that bridge realism with dreamscape or Magic Realism. Soft rolling golden hills and billowing white clouds in blue or stormy skies are recurring themes in her work. McGinnis is a mid-career American artist, whose oil on canvas paintings shine with the light and warmth of nature. She is associated with The American Impressionists and Magic Realism. Her work is included in some of the nation's most prestigious museums, public institutions and private collections, and is collected worldwide. Her works are contemporary and modern in composition. Both styles of painting are developed in the same way. Neither the abstracts nor landscapes start with preconceived ideas. With the swirling of brushwork and layering of glazes, McGinnis creates her signature style of softness and painting that glows from within. The Legion of Honor Museum in San Francisco includes three of her drawings in its permanent collection and her work also appears in other numerous private and public collections. McGinnis has shown her work at the Oakland Museum of California, Arkansas Arts Center, Triton Museum of Art in Santa Clara, Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento and several other public spaces and galleries. McGinnis paints in the landscape and abstract genre.

Donna McGinnis was born in Spokane, Washington. McGinnis grew up in an artistic family. Her mother was an artist, her grandmother a musician and her father a photographer. Drawing came naturally to her as she had very vivid memories of admiring her father’s black and white photography. These silvery prints inspired McGinnis. Through his love affair with the still image, McGinnis learned composition, chiaroscuro (light and dark tonality), form and line, in essence the basics of formal art theory. McGinnis had a childhood babysitter and mentor who taught her and her two sisters art...
