Donna Gans paintings give form and illumination to the mysteries and images from her life. Themes of life and death as they relate to her relationships, memories, dreams, and landscapes are invariably present and have always been the impetus for her work.

The use of raw materials--unrefined, unprepared, coarse -- combined with the purity of individual images create a whole life picture.
