An artist since her early years at Chouinard's Art Institute, in Los Angeles, Bonnie's background is as colorful as her paintings. For over 20 years, she traveled through Europe, studied painting, exhibited and sold her art in England, Germany, South Africa and the USA. The original works of the masters, especially Marc Chagall and the fluid sculptures of early Greece are constant source of inspiration. As an emerging artist, she admires the works of the Impressionists, Expressionists, Surrealists, and many Modern and Contemporary artists, still maintaining an integrity and style that is all her own. Her most recent paintings have been shown in New York City and in several of California's Monterey Bay Area galleries. Her work hangs in private collections internationally. Border's Books in Old Town, Los Gatos hosted an exhibition of her work in March 2002. Then, in the Spring of 2003, her Light and Color of Greece series was shown in the Art Studio of Hellenic International Studies in the Arts on the island of Paros, Greece.
