...they will
mount up
with wings

like eagles.

Dona D. Barnett:
​printmaking and drawing both contemporary and traditional.

My drawing professor once told me that my work is about whispers.  I think that’s an apt description.  If you'd like to read more, here's a link.

most recently:

It was a hard decision to make but we've moved away from Asheville! My studio is now in my home in Ringgold, Georgia, close to family as well as the Association for Visual Arts in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I'm excited about the fresh start and new possibilities!

These pieces and more are now at In-Town Gallery in Chattanooga. I hope to see you there :)
Jesse Tree/Advent Calendar, and Christmons:

A few years ago I developed two sets of ornaments, one for use as Jesse Tree or Advent count-down, and one in the form of Christmons. I gave them to family and sold a few sets on Etsy. Here is a link to photos. If you are interested in ordering, send me an email with following form...

Zach
October 11, 2025 marks 10 years since we lost our gentle son to suicide.  Most of the art I made in the years before his death expressed my prayers for Zach.  After his death, making art continues to help me to process grief.  Above I have created a link to the work "New Reality" (click on Zach's name).  My hope is that these pieces bring a moment of comfort to those who are hurting when words fail.
