Art Biography  1/2026

A native Virginian, born in Alexandria and residing in Richmond, Charlottesville and Louisa before moving to Prince William County, Woodbridge in 2007, Donna Liguria has always been a dabbling artist and painter, working mainly with acrylics on canvas. Her style is typically ‘painted realism’ rendering landscapes, seascapes, animals and pets, and wonderful places to be and see. She often gets comments, “is it a photo or a painting?”

Her life-long art experiences included a previous paint business, called "WallDreams" where she painted murals on walls in restaurants and homes around Virginia. Previous “non-art” work also included owning several restaurant businesses in Charlottesville and Louisa, and more recently working for a Northern Virginia IT company before retiring. Donna then began to pickup the brushes again and cites 2020 in the time of COVID as the beginning of her art career.

Mostly self-taught, Donna is inspired by beautiful colors, textures, sun light, and shadows with a passion to applying the captured vision to canvas, with thought to “painting it as real as it can be”. She shows her artworks at area art galleries and art shows as well as on Etsy and her own website. Her art has won occasional People's Choice Awards and recognition on the Prince William County Arts magazine.

Donna is also the Blogmaster of the PWAS Artistry Spin Blog at https://artistryspin.blogspot.com/ and her own Blog called Donna's Cave Paintings at https://donnascavepainting.blogspot.com/. She is also the Social Media person for the Prince William Art Society, please contact pwas.art1@gmail.com to help.
