Donna Giraud prides herself in how she approaches selling art. She believes that buying art should be a positively enjoyable experience and that art should make you feel something.

Her unique textural style and west coast inspired compositions lend themselves to a variety of design aesthetics and often make you feel inspired, hopeful and optimistic.

And her newest 8 pieces do just that. Donna reflects on the past 8 months during the COVID-19 pandemic and her art reflects and represents all the beautiful moments she witnessed during the world wide quarantine. She believes that the world came together in incredible ways and wants her artwork to remind you that we are always better together.

A NOTE FROM THE ARTIST ABOUT THE SHOW

Regardless of where you come from, how you’ve been brought up, what your core values are, no one can disagree that we all have COVID in common. Never has there been an event in history the whole world has experienced together on this level. Everyone can relate. Everyone has a story and a million emotions tied to this moment in time and I didn’t want this profound commonality to go unnoticed or under appreciated. 

Shared experiences bring people together, and COVID has done just that. We all now know what a worldwide crisis feels like and I think, as a human race, have never been stronger.

Whether it was dropping in to check on a nearby neighbour, doing grocery pickups for those that couldn’t get out or singing on balconies to pass an otherwise boring evening, we got through this ( and are still getting through this) because we did it together.

I wanted this collection of art work to be a reminder of this moment in time. Not of the sickness or loss, but of the realization that we are all the same and that we can accomplish greatness if we do it together. 

The 7 new pieces are about hope, connection, kindness, being united and hopefully an inspiration that moving forward is always better together.
