Jolie E. Bonnette

My art is very much influenced by my Pagan spirituality and the things I learn from it. I have always been a very creative person. I'm an animal nut and I love to read. I also like to RPG. My art has always been a sort of release valve for me, helping me much through the boring mundane world. While a lot of what will be seen in my gallery will be digital in nature, I enjoy many different traditional forms of art as well. I've created art in a variety of genres, but my favorite subjects have always been more fantasy/sci-fi/horror related. I now sell a good bit of my work on merchandise and recently stated sending prints to convention art shows (currently on hiatus until I can get a day job to fund all of that). Due to having to reduce the color depth and resizing issues required to get my work into my gallery here, I apologize for how bad the colors and resolution are. The originals look MUCH better!  I highly recommend you take a peek at the art on my actual art site since I don't have the restrictions on size there. The difference is immense. Also, you will find more information about the images and, sometimes, little story blurbs that go with them.

If you'd like to see where my art art and/or I will be, check out my online calendar !

I think my favorites in your gallery are the more abstract looking ones, such as the phoenix. Really impacting. 5 Sep 2002 Arendine 'Faranyell' Martens Loading... Yes indeed,amazing gallery.It's nice you're here and want to share this amazing artwork!The phoenix and fire horse are absolutly my favourites here,but then I don't say the rest is good,not at all!!I can't wait to see more! 5 Feb 2003 Michael D. Bonnette Loading... Wow, Good Artwork Jolie, even better that I remember when I was younger, thanks to you and your teaching me to draw, I am just as good as you. Keep up the good work, I love you Aunt. Michael 20 Jul 2004 Anonymous Loading... Wow..I really like your stuff...some of it would make for very interesting tattoos ^_^ 4 Sep 2004 Anonymous Loading... WOW! Poor work!, Poor subject selection. Below average use of color and imagery! Maybe you should learn to paint first before showing like this in such an open public forum. Jolie E. Bonnette replies: "Wow, I'm so impressed with people who bash but don't have guts enough to leave a name. *smirk* I've sold and had my art published. Have you?" 5 Sep 2004 Anonymous Loading... Pity you can't spend more time practising your so called art .... too much time spent on other pursuits I've heard ... glad there are others out there willing to help instead of hinder aspiring talents .... something you could do with by the looks of this stuff 9 Sep 2004 Anonymous Loading... Darned shame you can't spend more time on your technique's, and less time "stalking and harassing" innocent people. Judging from the look of your work, I'd call it plain old fashioned jealousy. BLECH Jolie E. Bonnette replies: "Hmmm... "stalking and harassing innocent people"? You must be one of those art thieving rippers we keep turning in. They're the ones always whining about being "harassed" when artists lay down the law about stealing their stuff. I'm so hurt by your remarks. *mock pout* My granny threw harsher remarks than that. NEXT!" 1 Oct 2005 Naomi *OmI* Repper Loading... *points to above comments* arseholes ... Basically! I can tell your strong enough not to take pathetic comments like such get to you. But i just had to call them that ^^. Your work is lovely and each piece has an interesting and unique structure to it which personally appeals to me. Luv omi-chan xxxxxxxx Jolie E. Bonnette replies: "Oh, I had a couple of lame art thieves get pissed off and leave childish remarks because they got reported to artists for stealing thanks to a group I run. I just ignore them. *snicker* I don't do the art for anyone but myself anyway, so if others enjoy it that's great. If not, it's no skin off my nose. LOL I've had worse comments and words are just words. *shrug* Thanks for the kind words, though. they do make me smile when I get them. " 14 Jan 2008 Leona Preston Loading... Hi there. Ah, so I see (ref the comments on the Anubis themed pics). Good on you for reporting it and hopefully it’s just a bug that the Elfwood mods will be able to sort out eventually. There are a lot of aspects of Elfwood that seem to need a tweak nowadays. 1 May 2009 MT Starkey Loading... Awesome gallery. Page: [1] 2
