"The Modern Day Matisse"

Fast becoming very collectable, Florida artist Coni Donaldson has come into her own with a style that exudes a vibrant intensity, full of color, depth and meaning, born out of her own experience of a decade of helping women to find their own creativity during her 'former life' as a psychotherapist.

An artist who still believes in beauty and who has sold hundreds of original paintings on eBay over the past five years, Coni Donaldson's paintings now hang in art collections around the world and in several galleries in the USA.

"In my portraits of women I seek to capture a timeless moment of communion between the human and the natural worlds. When I paint, time seems to stop, and I hope my art reflects that eternal "present moment" in its abundance and beauty." Coni Donaldson

"I love to paint women, working from photographs or life or both.  I seek to reveal the inner as well as the outer essence of my subject.  And, working with a client to produce a one-of-a-kind work of art for their home is always an exciting challenge."
