Donna Skebo
At the turn of this century, I was working as a sales executive for IBM in New York City. Through a chance circumstance, 9/11 became a “carpe diem” moment for me and I decided to pursue my passion for art full time in 2002. Since then, I have been studying at the Art Students League and the National Academy School of Fine Arts.
My work has been exhibited in juried exhibitions at the Art Students League and National Academy, and I have received awards from both schools including several Best in Show and the Riva Paul Award for Figurative Art. I was also selected in to juried exhibitions at the Cork Gallery at Lincoln Center, the Woodstock Art Center, the Brooklyn Waterfront Artist Coalition, and the Pop Up Art Show at the National Academy Museum of Fine Arts. My paintings can also be found in various private collections. I am currently represented by the Alex Adam Art Gallery and an enthusiastic member of the Portrait Project.
