  Artist Talk with Donna Rey-Taylor

  Donna Rey-Taylor was born in Ulm, West Germany in the post World War II era to a German mother and an American soldier. She has always felt a need to express her art in theater, in music as an accomplished organist and vocalist, and an interior designer. As her children became adults, she decided to pursue formal education at Kendall College of Art and Design in Grand Rapids, MI. Her purpose was to develop her genre in a most professional and scholarly means by creating precise imagery. Continuing her education, she has worked with professional artists doing layout and also doing finish work as a secondary artist on murals. Her aptitude, education, and apprentice work has helped her evolve her talent to produce art with keen attention to detail with focus on composition and design elements.
