Artist Statement My name is Kate Bonnie; my intention through art is to capture the essence of the surrounding beauty of the world around me. My main style of art is Plein air painting. I feel it is the best way to impress upon a canvas the core of the immersive beauty in which I stand. I combine my paintings into my YouTube vlogs so that my audience can feel like they are not only part of the process, but it also reveals who I am as an artist. Currently I work in IGA supermarket to fund my paintings, however, my plan is to make painting my entire livelihood in the near future.
