Growing up in a family of painters and musicians, Patricia Donovan/TA Donovan developed an appreciation for and a devotion to art. However, her passion for the arts percolated for years as she pursued a career in education – first as teacher and then as a principal. While creating- with her faculty - an elementary school for the arts within the Littleton (Colorado) Public Schools, she began pursuing her own creativity. Studying first at the Denver Art Museum and later at the Denver Art Students’ League, she found her way to figurative and landscape painting. In her work, you will find the influences of Ron Hicks, Kim English and Michael Lynch, her teachers, who demonstrate movement, light, and drama in their paintings. Viewers find that stories unfold in TA Donovan’s paintings - as light and shadows drift across the canvases.

My work is an expression of my love for all things in nature. Growing up in Idaho family time was outdoor time. Imprints of the land and wildlife made lasting impressions on me. I moved to Colorado in the summer of 2008 to work at Piney Lake where I immediately fell in love with the Gore Range; I have been circling away and looking over my shoulder at those peaks ever since. I express my feelings and emotions best with color, and there is no shortage of it in my work. I strive to balance all that color in my work by making sure I pay close attention to the value scale and rhythm of the piece. The current series that will be at the library in February is all acrylic and carving on 24” x 24” plywood.
