Cv/bio
   As a child,South Florida's tropical beauty strongly influenced Bonnie, cultivating itself in her palette and subject matter as an adult.  The Everglades and charming Florida towns that she visited in thlse young impressionable years are often predominate in her paintings.  Working primarily in oil, Bonnie portrays the simple beauty of the everyday scenes that we so often take for granted
Beginning the study of art at an early age and continuing throughout her life as she traveled from Boston to New York, Bonnie eventually returned to her beloved South Florida, where she continues to study with well Known artist such as Al Razza and Larry Gerber.  In addition to her study of fine art, Bonnie obtained degrees in psychology,anthropolgy and counseling from the University of Florida.
