About Donna D.
Do you want to study photography with a commercial photographer who's photographed Tiger Woods, George Stephanopoulos and golfer, Carrie Webb? Learn the basics of lighting, composition and camera usage or advanced techniques and strategies to create picture stories for publication.
Would like to improve your writing skills, language skills or English understanding, I can help as a nationally published features writer for USA Today and Gannett.
Improve your interviewing skills for article writing by someone who's interviewed Jason Alexander of Seinfeld fame.
Do you want to develop your understanding of and proficiency in graphic design, drawing, painting and 2-D design, learn from a professional in the field who studied at Rhode Island School of Design, Ontario College of Art and Design with an MFA from RIT.
I tailor my teaching to the level of each student. Instruction is fun and exciting. With an education that's included six years in art school, my teaching style is creative and intuitive yet provides the structure needed to grasp concepts quickly.
I gear all study to achieving a level of mastery of the subject. With a respect for what others have achieved, we'll look at the contributions in the field, then set the bar high with an innovative approach to learning.
