Patrice Donnell

I’m a New York City artist, event leader, actor and writer. I studied sculpture in the artistic lineage of Auguste Rodin, and create portraits of humans, animals and imagination. Art is a dance between subject, inspiration and material. Every subject has its own mystery, its own music, and the deeper you listen, the more your work can resonate and hopefully, inspire others.

My debut mystery novel, “Untouched” is about a sculptor with a sixth sense of touch who discovers a devastating family secret, and it is represented by Mitchell Waters of Brandt & Hochman Literary Agency. My work as an actor is represented by Debra Sherry at Innovative Artists. I was a recipient of a New York Foundation for the Arts Grant 2021, and am always excited for the chance to make something beautiful. My studio is located in Manhattan’s Little Italy, but the work can go wherever you are. What can I create for you?
