About the Artist
Shannon Bonatakis engages her viewers using highly stylized and emotionally charged portraiture. Inspired by human experiences both personal and interpersonal, she lovingly interprets these universal emotions through her subjects. Often autobiographical in some capacity, her paintings give us a candid window into the deep dark caverns of the artist's psyche. These narratives are often left open to interpretation, but emanate a deep personal significance to the creator which is not always clear, but always compelling.
Shannon studied illustration at Columbus College of Art & Design in Columbus, Ohio. Since graduating in 2004, she has had an active career as both an illustrator and a gallery artist. She currently lives, works, and barely ever sleeps in Denver, Colorado with her husband and their adorable puppy, Enid Coleslaw.
