X-WR-CALDESC:Bonnie Zahn Griffith is an artist of the western landscape\, w
 orking in oils and pastels.\n\nThe rich pigments of pastel and oil allows 
 Griffith to create paintings that have the brilliance and the bold color w
 e see in the landscapes of the in the western United States\, giving me un
 limited options to create.   These mediums  bring depth and texture\, ligh
 t and mood into her paintings.  Griffith's goal is to create work that dra
 w the viewer in to experience and imagine the time of day\, the temperatur
 e\, the sounds\, the smells.\n\n'I want the viewer to experience the work 
 and get lost in it – if only for a moment.  My love of the landscape promp
 ts me to paint it.  I look for a story to tell when I look at the sagebrus
 h hills\, the lush river lands\, the wheat fields\, the intense greens of 
 spring in rich mountain valleys and the ever changing colors of the desert
 .  My mediums allow me to tell that story with strong color and intensity.
   If I have been able to create a piece that brings the viewer to experien
 ce that...then I have done my job.'\n\nAbout Bonnie\nAs a child of artist 
 parents\, I grew up on a ranch near the Missouri Breaks in central Montana
 . We lived in a remote area and that allowed for a lot of self-directed en
 tertainment - drawing\, painting\, reading\, horseback riding and daily ra
 nch chores.  I was a self-proclaimed artist at age 5\, getting into my mot
 her's paints and paper\, and create I did.  Landscape shapes\, texture and
  color were observed and studied.  Famous artists like Russell\, O’Keefe a
 nd Payne were favorite sources of reference.  I don't remember ever being 
 'bored' because there was always something to do that interested me!  Pret
 ty much all of that stuck with me through a career in Radiology Sciences\;
  showing work in galleries and exhibits during that time.  In the mid 1990
 's my art became a full time endeavor.  I have studied with instructors su
 ch as Robert Moore\, Scott Christensen\, Lorenzo Chavez\, Ned Mueller and 
 others in the quest to strengthen and develop my style of representational
  work.\n\nI am a signature member and the Secretary for the Pastel Society
  of the West Coast\, a signature member of and past President for the Nort
