Abraham Donne

I could introduce myself in many ways.  I could talk about growing up in Cleveland, Ohio, or my coming-of-age, or what I've done professionally as an adult.  But those details aren't particularly revealing.  There is one thing which unifies the art I create:

I've always loved telling stories. 

​​

For as long as I can remember, I was fascinated with books, movies, and history.  Even traditional artwork, such as painting or sculture, was enough to inspire my imagination.

​

I've come to believe that storytelling is a vital part of being human.  Stories allow us to see the world through someone else's eyes.  Through art, we're freed from the prison of our own limitations.  Stories help us develop empathy, take us to new places, and expand our perspectives.  The right story can lead us to reexamine society without the prejudice of our personal circumstances.

​​

I try to tell stories as best I can.  Sometimes, that's through stories.  Othertimes, it's photography or film.  If you want to know more about me, all the information you need is in the pictures and words that I've shared on this page.

Thank you for visiting.  I hope that you enjoy what you find here and that your own story is one worth telling...
