Ever since I can remember I have been a dreamer, a creator, and someone who is fiercely devoted to self expression and kindness. It is with this ideology that I move in the world and have devoted my life to the exploration of art and the creation of hundreds of public art installations within communities all over the world. From Africa to Israel, to small towns along the East Coast and over 100 public art projects in Baltimore and the DMV alone, I have been able to utilize my talents and expertise to spread the power of art.

I have been working in fiber since 1981. I now work primarily by machine and have made over 470 quilts.
My style has evolved from more traditional to more abstract over the past 15-20 years. Sometimes representational, but mostly abstract or geometric describes my work.
I have exhibited work locally, throughout the U.S., and have won awards at many shows. I have sold work at private galleries, at the Textile Museum shop, and also to private customers through shows and through my website, www.donnaradner.com.
A native of Washington, DC, and now resident of Maryland, I paint plein-air in oils and both soft and oil pastels, have won many awards, sold over 1000 paintings, exhibit in local shows, and give an annual show of my recent work.

Karen Isailovic is a creative visionary whose journey as a painter began in 2002 in Maryland, where she was born and raised. She trained in realism, landscape/plein air, and worked with multiple mediums, including oil, pastel, and watercolor, at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and the Corcoran School of Art. However, it was in 2015, when she was introduced to abstract painting in acrylic, that she discovered her true artistic voice.
As a visual artist I paint still life, landscapes and abstracts.
I have been creating art since I was a small child (many children are small), painting Popeye the Sailor with enamel paints on wood, building plastic model cars, building and racing radio control cars and trucks, drawing in colored pencil and graphite, and generally a DIY fix it kind of guy, always working with my hands.
