Jeff Donndelinger
Jeff Donndelinger has been painting since 1999. Although he occasionally explores other
mediums and materials, he seems irresistibly drawn back to painting. Striving to create works
that are both entertaining and visually pleasing is the keystone of his artistic journey. He
prefers abstract to literal representations, because abstraction allows viewers to impose their
own boundaries when experiencing art, so that their interpretations and appreciation are
limited only by their own imagination. Several recurring themes are evident in Jeff’s work,
depending on the particular emotions and mood he intends to evoke. His more colorful works
utilize smooth transitions that are calm and somewhat surreal, contributing a dream-like
quality. Another distinctive group employs quasi-geometric symbols that he portrays as
representing the connections and relationships of everyday experiences.
