Donna Dewberry Biography

Donna Dewberry developed a technique for stress-free painting, after many evenings of painting at her dining room table, and that became the basis for the One Stroke technique and her series of One Stroke painting books.  Donna is a teacher and author of North Light and Plaid books.  Donna Dewberry can be seen on the PBS and QVC television networks teaching her One Stroke technique to hundreds of thousands of viewers.

Donna Dewberry's One Stroke painting workshop certification classes are taught all over the country.  Also offered is a Two-Day Wall Seminar class for those who are interested in painting walls using the One-Stroke technique.  And she also offers classes for those who want to become certified as a Home Décor Specialist or Wall and Furniture Specialist. 

Donna has kept the vision of the important basic things needed for a happy and successful life - her family, her religion, and her painting.  It's true in painting, as well, that there are some very important basic techniques that every painter needs to know for success.  Once you learn and practice the basics of the "One Stroke" technique, you will be able to paint any design in her books.

Donna has made the One Stroke painting technique understandable for beginner painters saying "You can learn to paint quickly, easily and beautifully with the One Stroke painting method".  So don't be afraid of her talent, she will encourage you to bring out the artist in yourself.  Donna takes the intimidation out of painting, by breaking down strokes to build lush, colorful flowers and whimsical critters.  With practice, any level of painter can accomplish beautiful hand-painted projects and enjoy the satisfaction of creativity.  Donna's life focus is education and, to-date, she has certified over 3,500 people to teach the FolkArt One Stroke method in locations across the globe, including the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Japan.  And the excitement continues to grow with new classes and workshops being taught around the world.
