Bonny Myers (Bonita) was formally introduced to art in children’s classes at the age of 10, then studied with adults at 13 in Quebec City. Much later she created with clay and Folk Arts while being a busy wife, mother of three children and part-time RN. She returned to painting after her children had grown when she attended classes for three years in Calgary using Acrylic medium. She has also studied with numerous diverse artists in workshops and classes in Canada and abroad. Her paintings were exhibited at Goward House in May and November 2006, in Saanich Municipal Hall in July 2007, at the Artists Corner in September 2007 and she currently has other pieces on display in Victoria.
      Styles and techniques of famous artists’ works in galleries and museums around the world have been her inspiration for the realistic interpretations of life and landscapes that Bonny paints. Her photographs are the tools and memories from which she paints landscapes of local and travel scenes, recreating the feelings each vista portrays to her. Bonny’s works, signed BONITA, are currently in private collections in Calgary, Ottawa, Montreal, Sydney (Australia), Vancouver, and Victoria. She now lives in Victoria with her husband.
