About
A painter of landscapes in the broadest sense, from the natural environment to the human body and even the dreamed, remembered or imagined landscape, Bonnie’s subjects can be vast as a desert or intimate as a single tree trunk or a pair of legs. They range from the giant trees of the west coast through the prairie “big sky” to local haunts north of the GTA. Working primarily in oils, acrylics and most recently, mixed media, she has been developing her art for fifteen years with an eclectic program of studies at schools in Montreal and the GTA, actively exhibiting for the last seven. Her works are in private and corporate collections across Canada and in the US.
Current shows: 2 + 2 = 24 Landscapes, Alton Mill Pond Gallery to Feb.26 (4 artists); Visual Arts Mississauga Annual Juried Show tp Feb.25. -
