Taste This: The True Story
Bonnie began her art career in film. She received a BA in Film and Video with a minor in Art History from the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). Originally creating experimental documentaries she began to turn to animation to express her ideas. Bonnie found that she preferred creating these 2-D images. She loved the immediacy of them compared to film. Her paintings are still very narrative and this stems from her time based media background. Normally pairing her paintings with short stories underneath she believes in the dialogue between the artist and the viewer is very important to each piece. To view the pairing of paintings and stories please visit her blog www.soybonnie.tumblr.com
