Meet Kristin: The Artist
Abby the Apprentice was created by California-based artist, Kristin Donner. She's a 21st Century girl exploring her world with a trowel and a pencil. In the summer of 2014, Donner joined an international cohort of volunteers (led by American archaeologist Laura K. Harrison) and hundreds of Turkish archaeologists, artists, and local workers to rescue artifacts from the endangered Anatolian site of Seyitömer Höyük. As she excavated, restored, and illustrated artifacts from Seyitömer's Pottery Workshops, Donner gained an impression of life - and work - in the Early Bronze Age. |
