The Process
These are unfinished works in progress so the viewer can see the process of creating. I believe that the process is the most important part of creating art.

"Bohnert{s} .. paintings' cracked and nearly molten surfaces showcase her masterful command of texture and color.

"In Deborah Bohnert's work there is a sort of ironical erotic sumptuousness."
Donald Kuspit
Disitinguished Art Critic

"Your work seems to be exploring the line between sculpture and painting in a remarkable way."
Harry Cooper
Curator of Modern Art, Fogg Art Museum

creative and masterful use of materials."

Artist Statement
Good art communicates life that is deeply felt.

The Gallery
by Robert Wall, artist of sacred space, author, nurse practitioner

The Zen story is told of the old Master pointing his index finger straight at the moon, shouting at his students:
"This is one finger Zen!" Ignore the finger; discover the moon.
The students, failed
They pointed at the moon;
They talked about moon.
I went to a Gallery opening tonight by my friend Deb Bohnert.
She passes through walls and no one notices.
She reaches down in herself and pulls out the moon.
