Combining contemporary folk
art with a touch of whimsy,
Donna begins with a fun twist to
familiar sayings and then inter-
prets them into two dimensional
pieces. Using felt to create her
work, mostly cats, then embel-
lishing them with buttons and
other found objects and some
tongue-in-cheek fun they come
to life in her Whimsical Woo-
lies. She is also known as the
Weaver Chick, as she is an ac-
complished basket weaver, too.
A newly retired teacher from
Kingwood Elementary School,
Donna received an undergradu-
ate degree in Early Childhood
Development from Marshall
University and then a Masters in
Special Education from WVU.
