Harvey Bonner

This goauche on paper board was originially created as an entry in a competition held by a collectables firm.

Harvey David Bonner was graduated from The Philadelphia College of Art (now University of the Arts) and after post graduate work at P.C.A., The Choinard Institute of Art in Los Angeles, California and considerable time as an advertising designer, he joined the Medallic Design Department of a large private mint. After retirement he re-cycled himself as an easel painter with most of the production being in oil-on-canvas… “because it is most pastic and most forgiving to those of us who are experimenters. I add and delete areas and change my mind a lot even after the initial painting work has been started". His work is impressionist in style, sometimes romantic in nature. Favorite subject matter is horses, ships and the sea and figures from life, fiction, history and fantasy.
