Wanda Stovall Donati studied art at the University of Arkansas and the University of Memphis as an undergraduate. However, art studies were interrupted while she attended law school, practiced law, married and raised three children.
In recent years she resumed her study of art with S. Sanders, A. Enochs, D. Broadway, A.Templeton, and the Memphis Art Academy.
Her paintings are full of color and light, and the subject matter involves symbolic use of familiar objects.
