She loves to incorporate different mediums as a figurative painter. Oils, soft pastels, acrylics, and clay as well as traditional drawing mediums are all at use in her wheelhouse.\r\u003cbr\u003eVolunteering is a big part of her life in her studio environment at Harcourt House, an artist run art centre and in her artist housing co-op.\r\u003cbr\u003eBonnie attended University at University of Waterloo in Ontario, studying visual arts, feminist theory and women's art history.\r\u003cbr\u003eAs a mostly self taught artist, she never the less studied with some of Edmonton's most well known artists in workshop and private mentoring.\r\u003cbr\u003eBonnie is dedicated to her practice of life drawing, committing one to three days a week at Harcourt House as well, facilitating the life drawing and working as a life model.\r\u003cbr\u003eBonnie's studio practice at her own private studio at Harcourt House and in her home studio demonstrates commitment to her work and greatly enhances her ability to dedicate her energy to her painting practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eARTIST’S STATEMENT\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePainting, visual art making, is actively demonstrating the artist's emotional connection to her world. I love colour, expressionist brush work and modelling the paint using light and shadow. Looking, paying attention, remembering, and striving to record in paint these notions of what I see in a face or a body never gets old. I don't need realism, I use colour and shapes to tell my story and the tale of my focus. It's a romantic story of finding delight and beauty and passion. I see this in the whole world as an antidote to sadness, and rage and depression. There is light and there is precious divinity in every soul. A flower, a plant, a pear, or a human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"floating-cell-life","title":"Floating Cell Life","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOil on canvas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e30x24x2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImaginary being in the ocean of life\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bonnie Bigley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42226208374887,"sku":null,"price":750.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0063\/3038\/4487\/files\/1_1772316913_25453.jpg?v=1772463549"},{"product_id":"the-green-housecoat","title":"The Green Housecoat","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOil on canvas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e30x40x2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA series of male nudes with housecoats, kimono\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bonnie Bigley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42226216927335,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0063\/3038\/4487\/files\/1_1772388823_18473.jpg?v=1772464374"},{"product_id":"by-the-ocean","title":"By the Ocean","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOil on canvas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40x30x2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImaginary longing for a seaside.
