Thank you so much! :) Keep creating from the inside out! Follow your inner self, and you will come to find out who you really are. Share this with others and they will then come to find out who they are. Art can be a tool to help you demonstrate your beauty within. Good luck and God Bless~! Donna

Be sure to have a solid portfolio. work hard and read books on how to market your art well. At some point you will need to hire an agent to get your work into some of the big art galleries. It is "how" your market your art that makes you successful. I wish you the best of luck! Do you have a website of your work now? Donna

Hola Donna tell me what kind of clay you use

[donnadohogne]

water base clay here in this demo. Good for firing in kiln. Oil base clay I use when sculpting to make bronze figures. Donna

i dont have money to go to school and learn techniques and all that, not to mention i live in mexico and we're hard on the painting, but not sculpting. what can you recommend to someone like me? eagered to develop my art, but with no sure way to do it. any ideas on the web?

[donnadohogne]

Go to the library....read as much as you can online and every art book you can get your hand on. majority of art is self taught once you learn the basics. You must master the basics and then you can create whatever you want. Get a block of clay and just play!!!! You'll be amazed what you can do! Also pore ceramics...that would be a good place to start with clay. Good luck!!! God Bless!! Donna

Hi Donna, I found your video about 6 months ago when i first discovered my calling, sculpture & clay. I can tell you are such a gentle spirit. I had to reply and compliment you, and your video and also thank you for inspiring me. i have a few quick questions for you: Is the song Enya? Do you have any other videos? Do you have a website? I luv your little studio and the sculpture! I am new to this so I hope you get this message. Thank you!
