Donna Bates Courageous Beauty

Native Californian Donna Bates is a self-taught artist who paints strong, independent, sexy, powerful women. In other words, Bad-Ass Chicks! Her most recent series “War Paint and Curlers” speaks to women’s rights, struggles and part in the human condition. Her oil paintings of the last year are created on Dibond, a thin aluminum Panel with a dense foam center. These panels, once prepped, create a nice smooth surface on which paint flows easily, unencumbered by the texture of canvas.
