​    ​She tells us, "What I love most about describing things that are very familiar to me, through art, is that I feel free to move into the abstract. Sometimes this exploration occurs in the palette I have chosen, and sometimes it happens in design. Either way, falling away from the literal translation of our landscape allows this medium to better interpret a feeling of real beauty."

 JD Jeffries Donahue is a long-time musician, singer, and songwriter who has played in bands alongside many top Northern California musicians since 1964. The “folksy” Jeffries plays countless classic mixed covers and originals with a flare and obvious love for his songs, with a smooth and personable delivery.

JD will be playing during the Friday evening Artist Reception.
