Bonnie Bergman has been making art since she was first able to grasp a pencil. A natural; her education and training has been both traditional and autodidactic. In the 1970's she was the apprentice of renowned painter Jack Leland Bailey, winner of the Prix de Rome, who said of her work: "She doesn't know how good she is." She trained on murals with Daniel Galvez, noted California muralist and joined him to work on 4 commissioned murals in Massachusetts and "Golden Mountain, Golden Fields" in the new Federal Courthouse in Sacramento, CA. In 1988 she left Boston for her family farmstead in Mason, Wisconsin where she continues "rollicking through multimedia with her multiple talents". A recent collector said of her portrait: "To paint the soul, indeed that is art."
