Ursula McDonnell  started her professional art carreer in the mid 90s when she joined a team of mural painters with Drove Skideo and Cindy Whiltshire. During this time she painted murals and faux finishes in restaurants and private homes all over the GTA.

In 1998 Ursula started teaching and put her art carreer on hold. With the passing of her father, in 2008, she was inspired to focus on her goals and return to art.  With the the support of friends and the inspiration of other artist/teachers she has been able to re-establish herself as an artist in the last three years. Today Ursula is focusing on portraits and mixed media, and abstract paintings.  

Ursula is an active member of a local artistic collective WALNUT STUDIOS.
