Donna
Raised Donna Rist right here in Granbury Texas! Donna has been a high-end hair
stylist and owned the Painted Pot art studio in Fort Worth. She has worked in
numerous mediums including clay throwing, acrylic pours, painting and no…Quail egg
art!
Donna’s Great Uncle Richard Woleski owned the famous Carousel art studio in New
Jersey. His specialty, you guessed it, Faberge style carved eggs. Two of his eggs
have been displayed in the White House. Uncle Richard mostly worked in Emu and
ostrich eggs. The family brought this art form to the US from Europe where the skills
have been passed down from generation to generation. This knowledge was passed
on to Donna. But they never had quail! Donna and her husband started growing quail
in 2023 and developed a patented system to grow these birds right next door to
Granbury in Joshua, TX. Donna fell in love with the eggs and feathers that she now
had in abundance and saw a way to bring her heritage into her art.
