Donna loves to paint!

Donna (and her husband of 34 years, Norm) manage about 150 subsidized apartments for over 25 years in four counties in Iowa, farm 350 acres of conr and soybeans, own and manage USDA Service Center offices in Iowa, and are the parrents of Heidi and Joni.

Donna painted cement lawn ornaments with an air gun for 14 years. During that time she also did sculpting for that business. Rubber and fiberglass moulds were made and then poured in cement.

Having family in a Norwegian town, Donna took one painting class in rosemaling and has done many pieces in that style.

Her daughter Heidi went to the University of Iowa and Donna took a 6 week intensive class with her in Life Drawing.

Donna has painted murals, used oils, acrylics, and watercolors.

She loves to hike in her spare time.
