"B Inspired" Meet Artist Donna Smith and the "Friends" She Creates from Recycled Materials

by Jane Stahl

Donna Smith is a new artist at Studio B whose work is part of Studio B's current "In Service" exhibit. On exhibit are "Gary"--who presents those who serve us by fixing things that break--and "Sweet & Sour" who reminds us that we all have happy/sad versions of our personalities--and that's OK!

"Gary" represents those VIP's in our lives who save us through their knowledge of how things work. 

Donna sees beauty and meaning in discarded objects that she collects at yard sales, flea markets, and thrift shops. Whimsical statements about people, their interests, their character and values show up in her creations. Her "artistic journey" included work with her sister for many years. The "red heads" enjoyed their work together.

More of Donna's work can be seen at the Colebrookdale Craft Depot on weekends. "B Inspired" can be found on your favorite podcast platform.
