Donna’s love of architecture and light, brought her attention to the large sea faring vessels which work the seas and oceans. They attracted her in the same way the lonely farms of the Karoo attracted her, displaying isolated communities going about their daily lives.

About Working Vessels
A tanker (or tank ship or tankship) is a merchant vessel designed to transport liquids or gases in bulk. Donna was inspired to paint vessels after her many visits to Singapore. Flying into Singapore, the oil trading hub for the world’s biggest consumer region, Asia, one sees the waters off Singapore’s coast or the nearby Malaysian waters full of idle tankers and ocean barges, like a floating city these vessels fill the landscape.
