VANCOUVER ARTIST REACHES HEARTS OF THOUSANDS WITH THE BEAUTY OF HER PANDEMIC EXPERIENCE

Oct 18

Vancouver abstract painter, Donna Giraud, has yet again touched the hearts of thousands as she painted her interpretation of the beautiful moments she witnessed during her quarantine experience.

Donna Giraud opens her gallery to 42 lucky people for a socially distanced solo art exhibition in her gallery in yaletown,

Committed to spreading joy and optimism with every painting she creates, Donna’s most recent solo show not only had people in (happy) tears, she was able to start a conversation about how we are better when we do things together. Her in person gallery experience was offered to only 42 lucky attendees who were both socially distanced and able to view a stunning and heart wrenching exhibit of 8 new pieces (which is now 50% sold out).

“JOINING FORCES CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS” 40x60 inches

The last 7 months have been filled with chaos, frustration, boredom and loss. Never have we as a human race all universally experienced something like this pandemic. Donna didn’t want this commonality of togetherness to go to waste and decided to paint her interpretation of all the beautiful moments she witnessed during her pandemic quarantine.

“I didn’t want this profound moment in history to be remembered for only its negativity. I wanted to shine light on the fact that despite all this chaos, we managed to come together in ways that made me proud to be a human.” -Donna

Whether it was singing on balconies or dropping in on a neighbour to see if they needed some groceries, this pandemic has shown Donna that we are capable of so much more when we connect and do it together.

Donna’s show was titled “Together Is Always Better” and for those that didn’t get the chance to see it in person, Donna is currently hosting a virtual experience on her website. Donna walks you through her gallery and explains the message and inspiration behind each piece.

With the intention of inclusiveness, Donna’s hope for the additional virtual show is to make you feel like you are surrounded by a community of people that care about you and that you can be proud of, but from the comfort and safety of your own home.
